After two months of work in the tank the Yale crew practised day before yesterday for the first time on the water. The day was warm and still, and the ice had disappeared from the harbor.
Capt. Ives coxswained and coached and rowed the men out in the harbor two miles at a stretch, taking them out on the four-mile course to the three-mile buoy.. The crew rowed as follows: Bow, Johnson; No. 2, Messler; No. 3, Van Huyck; No. 4, Paine: No. 5. Goetchins; No; 6; Rogers; No. 7. Beard; stroke, Gallaudet.
The rowing showed the want of practice on the water, and the men were very slow and the stroke short.
The crew still runs down to the boat house and back, three miles, but will give up the runs in about three weeks, and move down to the boathouse.
The oarsmen will stay in New Haven through the Easter vacation, and put in the holidays on the water.

It could have the potential to be a little awkward, right? As it turns out, this situation is anything but hypothetical—this was the reality sophomores Patrick Lapage and Nicholas Jordan faced when they joined the Harvard men’s heavyweight crew teams after competing against each other throughout high school.
