Quote From Patrick Beene '25
"It was exciting to get the win over some great teams and fight through the conditions. We pushed through rough water and came out on top."
 
Quote From Hunter Frederick '25
"We've got a really young crew and young boats right now. It is incredibly valuable to not only get the newer guys race experience in rough conditions, but to give them the experience of pushing out on front and taking first place."
