Men's Crew

The Crimson decisively swept the Harvard-Yale boat race (the varsity winning by 41.3 seconds), to cap a strong season. The men's heavyweight varsity won every race except the Eastern Sprints, where they were a close second to Wisconsin. That result, combined with victories by the freshman and JV crews, earned Harvard the Rowe Cup, awarded for overall supremacy in heavyweight events.

Baseball

The Crimson (20-25,16-7 Ivy) swept a two-game playoff with Princeton to capture the Ivy title. Ben Crockett '02 was Ivy League co-Pitcher of the Year.

 

Softball

Harvard (31-10, 15-3 Ivy) posted its best-ever record and first ECAC title, beating Columbia, 10-2, in the final. Tiffany Whitton '03 was Ivy League Player of the Year.
