The Cardinal raced in the second day of the Intercollegiate Rowing Association Championships. In Semifinal 3, the Cardinal battled Dartmouth for the lead from the first stroke. Dartmouth, the 2001 Ladies' Plate winner at the Henley Royal Regatta was able to nip the Cardinal at the line, winning by 1.5 seconds. Coach Craig Amerkhanian noted "The crew raced with integrity against Dartmouth." The Frosh Crew did not race today.
