Princeton 1V with the Carnegie Cup
No. 1 Heavies Set Course Record In Takedown Of No. 5 Yale and No. 14 Cornell
April 27, 2024 | Heavyweight Rowing
ITHACA – The No. 1 Princeton Men's Heavyweight Rowing Team took home the Carnegie Cup behind a blazing time on the Cayuga Inlet today.
Yale's 3V started the racing with a 5:40.56, 2.1 seconds ahead of Princeton (5:42.7).
The 1V set a new course record with a 5:26.6, breaking the mark set by Syracuse last year at 5:33 to secure the Carnegie Cup. Yale was second at 5:31.6 while Cornell had a 5:41.0.
"This race against Yale and Cornell was a big one on the schedule because it's the only regular season cup we didn't have in our trophy case," said Connor Neill. "There is still plenty speed to gain and putting up a course record time today sets the tone for how we are approaching the remainder of the season."
"It was pretty slippery conditions today and was awesome to get up in the top two boats especially on Wesley's (Hirschman) birthday," said Patrick Long. "It was great to be able to take advantage of the quick conditions and get the course record in front of a fast Yale boat. It's always very fun racing both Yale and Cornell."
Princeton's 2V also earned a win, crossing the line at 5:34.1, over five seconds in front of Yale (5:39.5). Cornell was third at 5:48.2.
Yale's 4V and 5V secured wins to finish the action. The last time Princeton won in Ithaca was 2006.
"All of our boats had strong performances today up in Ithaca and I'm proud of the way our team raced," said Princeton head coach Greg Hughes. "It has been a while since we won the varsity race in this event and it's great to see the Carnegie Cup back here in Princeton. Now, it's time to get back to work."
