RPI 1946 (CI 1782–2112). 2nd at King's Crown four seconds behind Greenwich. The widest interval in the top five — strong recent form, smaller body of cross-region racing.

RPI 1816 (CI 1745–1885). 3rd at the King's Crown A Final — the only Midwestern crew to make a top-three appearance against the Mid-Atlantic field this spring.

RPI 1796 (CI 1701–1896). 4th in the King's Crown A Final; 4th at Mercer Lake Sprints. Inside the cluster but not yet beating it.

RPI 1792 (CI 1735–1848). The tightest interval in the top ten — four wins in four spring outings, all inside the WMIRA / Mid-Atlantic schools circuit.
