Collegiate Women: Smith College vs. Skidmore and RPI
March 28, 2004; Connecticut River in Northampton,MA

Submitted by Karen Klinger.

Distance: 1700 approx***
Wind: relatively calm, slight cross head towards start
Water: calm
Current: 1700m ***Strong current against racing, hence the shortened course.
Comments: **Note: in the varsity eight, an excited fan with a bullhorn confused the Skidmore and RPI crews, who thought they had crossed the line. They actually had another length or two to go, so their times are 10 seconds or so slower than they should be. In the 2V8 and the N4, Skidmore stopped a bit early, not waiting for the flag.
