The Hobart varsity eight led a four-race sweep by the Statesmen of Williams College. Hobart produced a dominant sprint, pulling away from the Ephs in the final 500 meters for an open-water victory. Jessica Dinan, Brett Lawhon, August Wherry, Robert McNamara, Milos Milosavljevic, W. Hunter Holtz, Rob Nanovsky, Owen Monahan, and Davis Muller posted a winning time of 6:03.4. The Ephs crossed the line almost six seconds back in 6:09.2. The result was a huge improvement over last season, when Williams beat Hobart by more than 10 seconds.
