Lynne Marchiando/Jan Friis Trophies
MIT and Tufts
April 5-6, 2008
Day One results from Tufts
Upper Mystic Lake was a mirror upon arrival until well after 1:00.
A very light Northerly filled in, faded, then filled again and got
better and better as the sun began warming the region. Racing got under
way by about 2:30 but only one round-robin could be completed among the
seven teams.
The Medford Boat Club opened their doors and their floats to all teams.
Coaches and spectators enjoyed a perfect view from the heated second
floor lounge looking right down on the starting line.
All N courses, wind direction averaged due North, with speeds as low as
three knots in the early races to as much as ten knots.
Lots of close racing. URI was nearly a spoiler with really close races
against BC and Brown and a breakaway win over Tufts.
1. Boston College 5-1
2. Brown 5-1
3. Tufts 4-2
4. Vermont 3-3
5. Bowdoin 2-4
6. Rhode Island 2-4
7. Connecticut 0-6
Top four return to Mystic Lake for up to three rounds tomorrow for the
Friis Trophy with the top four from the MIT. Bottom three go to MIT for
the Marchiando Trophy.
PRO: Ken Legler
Other RC: Catherine Swanson, Meghan Pesch, Chloe Starr, others.
Judges: Peter Johns, Matt Knowles, Garth Reynolds.
