PRINCETON, N.J. – Brown University women's crew placed second in the women's varsity open eight event at the 2018 Princeton 3-Mile Chase, closing out its fall season on Lake Carnegie on Sunday morning.
"We were really pleased with the finishes of all five boats," Brown head coach John Murphy said. "We had really good spirit, and it was a good way to end the fall segment of our season. We will be moving into the winter and the spring with really good attitude and energy."
Over the last five seasons, Brown has taken either gold or silver at the event. The Bears won the race in both 2014 and 2016.
The Bears' A boat (bow 41) took second place out of 46 entries behind a time of 14:56.488 topping third-place Minnesota (15:02.294) by just under six seconds. Princeton won the race with a time of 14:44.560.
Brown's B entry (bow 55) came in fourth place with a time of 15:14.244, clipping Princeton's fifth-place B boat (15:17.756) by over three seconds.
Both of the Bears top two boats defeated A boats from Duke, Dartmouth, Rutgers, Central Florida, Rhode Island, North Carolina, Cornell, Boston College, George Washington, and Drexel.
Brown's C boat (bow 68) came in eighth place with a time of 15:26.828, crossing the finish just under two seconds ahead of Rutgers' ninth-place A boat (15:28.636) and just over a second behind Dartmouth's seventh-place A boat (15:25.478). The crew topped A entries from UCF, Rhode Island, UNC, Cornell, BC, George Washington, and Drexel.
The Bears' D entry (bow 78) finished 15th with a time of 15:54.512, clipping Princeton's 16th-place D entry (15:54.808) by 0.296 seconds. Brown trailed Princeton's 14th-place C boat (15:48.094) by just over six seconds. The crew bested A entries from UNC, Cornell, BC, GW, and Drexel.
Brown's E boat (bow 82) came in 27th (16:19.070), beating Drexel's 28th-place A boat (16:22.344) by over three seconds. The crew trailed North Carolina's 26th-place B boat (16:18.344) by just 0.726 seconds.
Next, Brown will resume racing in the spring of 2019.
