Two weeks ago, the team traveled to the Head of the Occoquan, in Virginia, while this past weekend Pitt’s novices raced on the Allegheny in the annual CarDuPitt scrimmage. In Virginia, the team had a number of notable finishes against strong competition from such schools as George Mason, Georgetown, and West Point. The men’s varsity eight placed fourth, finishing just out of a medal, while the top women’s four placed tenth. On the novice side, the women’s fours had strong showings, coming in sixth, seventh, The team breaks it down after a long day of racing ninth and thirteenth. The novice men added a sixth place in the four, and a seventh place in the eight to the team’s record for the day. The following weekend, the team’s novices took on neighbors Carnegie Mellon and Duquesne to compete for the title of Pittsburgh’s fastest novice crew.
