The Second Varsity Eight recovered from its seventh-place finish in Friday's heat and won silver medals to start Sunday's racing. The Varsity Eight then closed out the weekend with a third-place finish in its final to win bronze and complete an outstanding season for that group. Coupling those finishes with the Varsity Four taking third on Saturday, Penn was the only program to medal in all three events across the weekend.
 
As a team, Penn racked up 46.5 points which put the Quakers second in the standings behind Harvard (54.0) but ahead of third-place Princeton (43.5) and fourth-place Cornell (42.0).
 
Varsity Eights
Harvard has been top ranked through most, if not all, of the spring and the Crimson were all of that and more on Sunday. The Crimson led the final from start to finish, overtaking Penn prior to the 500-meter mark and never letting up. Princeton incrementally cut into the Quakers' lead and overtook the Red and Blue in the final 500 to finish second by a little more than a second.

Second Varsity Eights
After finishing seventh in Friday's race that set lanes for Sunday's final, the top-seeded Penn crew was back in form in the final. It wasn't enough, though, as the Harvard crew overtook the Quakers in the second 500 and never looked back, the Crimson ultimately besting the Red and Blue by a little more than three seconds. Cornell charged into third place, two seconds behind Penn and a little more than two-tenths of a second ahead of Navy
