BUFFALO, N.Y. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University rowing squad fell to the University at Buffalo in the ninth annual Nan Harvey Cup on Tonawanda Creek, April 19. The Bulls win marks the ninth victory over the Eagles in as many races.
 
UB's Varsity Eight race, the official race for the Nan Harvey Cup, crossed the line at 6:46.09, while the Green and White Varsity Eight finished at 6:57.90. Although EMU was unable to come away with its first Nan Harvey Cup, the Eagle improved their time from last season by almost three minutes.
 
In the second Varsity 8 race, the Bulls again took the victory coming in a minute and a half before the Eagle boat, while Buffalo's Novice 8 team crossed the line 57 seconds before the Eagle boat.
 
"A good race from both the 1V and 2V 8s, they are continuing to get faster each week," said Head Coach Brad Holdren, "Back to the drawing board for the MACRA next weekend."
 
The Eagles will be back in action Saturday, April 26 when they travel to Indianapolis, Ind. for the MACRA Regatta.
