Crimson Coeds Take Trophy

Rookie skipper Morgan Russom and a fellow first-year, crew Isabel Ruane, had a bit more difficulty in the B division of competition, as the freshman duo sailed to an 11th place effort.

“Everything came together really nicely for us in the A division,” Jumper said. “The freshmen in the B division sailed well on Saturday, but it was a little rough for them on Sunday, which is to be expected as they continue to get used to being in the boat together and to the different tactics used in collegiate sailing.”

HATCH BROWN TROPHY

While Harvard’s top sailors finished strongly this weekend in their respective regattas, some of the Crimson’s other sailors experienced some difficulty, as a coed contingent struggled to a 17th place team effort in a field of 18 at the Hatch Brown Trophy regatta held at MIT.

Junior skipper Brendan Kopp and junior crew William White finished well in the A division of racing, placing second, but 17th and 16th place efforts in the B and C divisions, respectively, hurt Harvard’s overall chances in the team competition.
