Looking Back

... at this past rowing season it went rather well. In my first year rowing my single, I took 1st in the lightweight single at the Chattanooga Head Race, Head of the Tennessee and Head of of the South. At the Head of the Tennessee, my first place contributed to a Clemson Crew sweep of the lightweight men's events including the four and eight. At the Head of the South my roommate Matt and I beat our roommates, the Chris's, in the Champ Double event to take second in the maiden race of the team's new WinTech double (bragging rights are to be assumed). I'm a bit disappointed that racing season for me won't resume until Masters events begin in the summer, but have decided on training for a marathon in the meanwhile. Hopefully, I'll be able to increase my ability enough to feel comfortable entering next year's Head of the Charles Regatta in Boston.

I'm proud of all of the club's rowers work this semester and look forward to seeing some fast times from everyone in the spring.
