Open Rowing's Varsity Four Wins C Final at NCAA Rowing Championships
May 30, 2021 | Women's Rowing - Open
SARASOTA, Fla. – The Princeton Women's Open Crew squad saw its Varsity Four boat win its final on the last day of the 2021 NCAA Rowing Championships on Sunday.
There was little separation in the first 500m of the Varsity Four C Final as five boats remained within two seconds of each other. The Tigers were seven-tenths of a second off the pace behind SMU at the point before shaving two more tenths off their deficit at the 1000m point.
Princeton used a fast 1:53.28 mark in the next 500m, clearing the field by over 1.7 seconds during that time to jump in the lead. The Tigers went on to take the race by 4.3 seconds to place 13th overall.
The 2V8 (6:45.47) boat finished second in its final behind Duke (6:43.42). Princeton led at the 500m and 1000m marks but couldn't hold off the Blue Devils to secure 14th place.
Princeton's 1V8 (6:32.56) collected the fourth spot in its Petite Final behind Ohio State (6:27.71), Brown (6:30.06), California (6:32.48). The Tigers earned the 10th overall, the boat's fifth straight top 10 finish.
