BU Posts Top-Three Petite Final Results At Eastern Sprints
May 14, 2023 | Men's Rowing
WORCESTER, Mass. – A Third Varsity 8 Petite Final victory highlighted the No. 13 Boston University men's rowing program's performance at the 2023 Eastern Sprints, held on Sunday (May 14) at Lake Quinsigamond.
Â
Competing against some of the top Northeast-based crews in the sport, BU sent all four of its crews to the Petite Finals, posting top-three results in their respective races. The Terriers have won a Petite Final in the last three Eastern Sprints, with the Second and Fourth Varsity 8 boats winning in 2019 and 2022, respectively.
Â
BU's Fourth Varsity 8, coxed by Luke Stroh and stroked by John Sherburne, began the day with a fourth-place result in its morning heat, having missed a spot in the Grand Final by just over three-tenths. The crew responded with a bronze-medal performance in the Petite Final, edging Cornell by two-and-a-half seconds with a time of 5:52.321.
Â
The Third Varsity 8, coxed by Peter Adams and stroked by Dylan Fagiani, clocked in at 5:51.635 in the morning heats. Locked into a duel with Cornell in the Petite Final, BU improved on its heat time with a 5:50.200 result, beating the Big Red by under seven-tenths to win the race.
Â
In the Second Varsity 8, which was coxed by Emily Slawin and stroked by Ethan Feldman, BU fended off Navy by under two seconds in 5:45.467 to move on to the Petite Final. The race provided an entertaining finish as four crews finished within one length of each other, with the Terriers taking third at 5:46.560, dispatching Penn by seven-tenths but trailing Northeastern by nearly five-tenths.
Â
BU's 13th-ranked Varsity 8, coxed by Micah Lee and stroked by Paul Seiters, placed fourth in its heat with a time of 5:43.316. The Petite Final saw a close contest between the six crews, but the Terriers came in second with a time of 5:36.554, just over a second-and-a-half behind No. 9 Northeastern. BU outpaced No. 17 Georgetown and 14th-ranked Penn by two seconds.
Â
The Terriers turn their attention to the 2023 IRA National Championship Regatta, which begins on Friday (June 2) at Lake Mercer in West Windsor, N.J.
