Trinity Wins the Charles

Starting #19 in a field of 29 the Collegiate Women's Four had an excellent start and continued pushing through the field to take a 25+ second victory. Our eight entry races today in rainy and blustery conditions - congratulations to all of the competitors from yesterday and best of luck to those of you who are racing in youth events today!

In other notable results, Trinity alums Peter and Tom Graves (Peter is our current men's assistant coach) won the Championship 2X event besting the current World Champions from Germany, while the men's collegiate 4+ qualified for next year's regatta finishing 10th. Bryna McConarty and Christine Collins (Olympic medalist in 2000) also competed in the Championship Women's 2X event and finished 13th in a strong and very well-represented international field.

I rowed in the new alumni eight event for Blue Cheese Boat Club (Yale Lightweight alums) and finished 11th also qualifying our entry for next year. Great stuff!

Heading to the Charles

Leaving with the trailer for the Head of the Charles shortly - we'll have two boats entered - a collegiate women's four on Saturday and a collegiate women's eight on Sunday. What an awesome opportunity to be a part of a huge event!
