The Northeastern women's crew finished second in the 2nd annual CAA Championship, dropping a heart breaker to Buffalo by one point on Sunday.

The Huskies emerged victorious in the varsity 8 event, earning 18 points. However, their second-place finish in the 2nd varsity 8 race and third-place finish in the varsity 4 event were not enough to capture back-to-back CAA titles.

In the 2nd varsity 8 race, Buffalo crossed the line at 6:43.2 while Northeastern finished at 6:51.7. In the varsity 4 race, Buffalo emerged victorious as well with a time of 7:30.3, ahead of Delaware (7:36.4) and Northeastern (7:43.6).

Three members of the Northeastern crew were named to the All-CAA first team following the event. Junior captain Veronica Townsend, junior Jen Forbes and junior Katie Ward earned the honors.

Next weekend, Northeastern is back in action, battling Boston University, Boston College, Radcliffe, MIT, and Columbia for the Beanpot.
