Although it is not currently on the school website, the team IS racing this weekend, against Northeastern University in Boston at 8a. They will do a 2k race and then some pieces afterward.
Northeastern is currently ranked 20th in the country in the most recent US Rowing Poll.
Northeastern is perennially a top 10 team in the country, but this year seems to be struggling a bit with a smaller roster than past years. They had a disappointing showing at the San Diego Crew Classic, winning the Petite Final. They have also lost to Boston, Brown, Georgetown, UPenn, and Harvard. However, they have excellent coaching and a phenomenal freshman class, so it is safe to assume they will be climbing the polls very fast next season.
According to cMax, the Huskies will win by 4.9 seconds.
Best of luck to the Crusaders this weekend! If anyone can catch video or photos, feel free to send them this way!
