In the Eastern Association of Rowing Colleges (EARC) Sprints on May 9, Princeton defeated Columbia and Harvard, 5:50.4 to 5:52.12 to 5:52.83, respectively.
That race and an April 24 loss to the Tigers in the Harvard-Yale-Princeton race, were the only losses the Crimson suffered on the season.
Harvard defeated Cornell, Penn, Rutgers, MIT, Dartmouth and Yale in head-to-head competition throughout the year.
Harvard Heavyweights
Going into Saturday's 134th Harvard-Yale Regatta, believed to be the oldest official intercollegiate competition of any kind, the Harvard heavyweights finished as the No. 7 heavyweight crew in the country.
The Crimson, which placed fifth at the EARC Sprints with a time of 5:50.28, could not crack into the upper echelon of heavyweight crews.
"The other crews were faster than us," Nuzum said after the loss. "It's a pretty simple sport. There were four crews out there who were better than us today."
