The Carnegie Cup was brought back to the Cornell Crew. The rain held off even though the slight head wind grew into a much stronger gail. Tons of Cornell fans and students came out to support the team in their 2000m race. And they were not disappointed as the Varsity, JV, 3V and Freshmen boats swept every race beating the top 5 ranked Yale and Princeton with just a few weeks until the Eastern Sprints.

But the day wouldn’t have been complete without the Cornell Bear making an appearance and adding to their incredible athletic accomplishment.

The men of the Varsity Eight at Cornell have worked very hard this season. They still have a few races left before Sprints and Nationals but today was definitely a hint of all the combining factors into one solid performance (power, strength, endurance, timing and technique) as a team.

The Carnegie Cup in all its glory. Congrats to Cornell again and especially to my little bro. Keep working hard. Keep working smart.

Have some great workouts this weekend. AR. NF. NR.
