On Sunday the Crew Team raced at the 5th and final Manny Flick regatta of the season and continued to make progress while experimenting with line-ups and race plans. The Freshmen team continued to demonstrate speed with good results in the Novice Eight and Freshman Eight Time Trials while the Varsity Eight also improved on the previous week’s results with a solid race under very fast conditions on the Schuylkill River. The team broke its Second Varsity Eight into a Varsity and JV Four which competed valiantly against a large field in each event.
Thanks to everyone who came to Philadelphia to cheer on the team on the banks of the Schuylkill River and to our hard-working parents for once again hosting an outstanding operation providing food for all our athletes and their families and friends during and after the racing.
In addition, a continuing thanks to everyone who has supported the team’s fundraising effort for the spring break trip.
