Crew roundup: Photo finish gives lightweights Biglin Bowl

By Heita Miki and Nick Binder | April 21, 2008

The Dartmouth men's lightweight crew team had a historic victory on Saturday, as the Big Green won the Biglin Bowl over Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology for the fourth time in the 59-year history of the event. The varsity eight boat made up a deficit of a boatlength in the final 500 meters of the race, defeating the Crimson in a photo finish. It was also the first time in Biglin Bowl history that both the varsity and the second varsity boats for Dartmouth were victorious. The varsity eight boat won in a time of five minutes and 51.8 seconds, just edging out the Crimson, which clocked in at 5:51.85. The second varsity eight bested its Harvard counterpart crew by two and a half seconds, with a time of 6:05.6. Commodore David Smith '08 was happy about the victory, but not fully satisfied with the team's performance. "It's hard to be satisfied if you have to come up on a crew from behind and bring it up to even," Smith said. For the first 500 meters of the race, both boats were even.
