Holy Cross Crew Pre-Season Update |
|
Crew is a demanding, time consuming sport not for the part-time athlete. The Holy Cross Crew Team competes in Regattas every Saturday Mid March to end of May. These are often ALL day long events. Competitions consist of 1500 meter "sprint" races. We row in 4 and eight person boats. We practice on Anacostia River and race in VA, DC and the end of year Stotesbury Regatta in Philadelphia late May. Team Size depends on equipment and transportation. Expected to be 25-35 members. Including Manager and Cox. |
