<p>What are some standard 6k and 2k times for incoming freshman, my split is around a 1:48 / 1:47 for a 2k and im a junior, so how much do i need to drop it to meet the standard times to be a strong contender (Im a rather short(5'8"), but broad shouldered, muscular lightweight).</p>
<p>You should go to the crew site on Dartmouth’s web page and fill out the form for the coach. Many of the kids on freshmen crew never did it before coming to Dartmouth -so you already have a leg up.</p>
<p>I forwarded your post to my son who is a recruited lightweight rower at Dartmouth and he sent this back: </p>
<p>tell him to get under 7:00 for a 2k and that should be his main goal. after that, just keep dropping it.</p>
