Why Crew?

Why Crew?

Crew is the ultimate team sport and requires rowers exhibit not only great strength and stamina, but also the ability to work together to make a shell of many parts move as one. Rowers are a unique bunch, recognized from the high school to college level as some of the hardest working and motivated student-athletes. Rowing is one of the fastest growing collegiate sports in the United States. Crew builds not only bigger, stronger athletes, but nurtures the human spirit.
