ONE STEP CLOSER TO CHAMPIONSHIPS

SMITHFIELD, R.I. -- On Sunday, April 28th, the Bryant Women’s Rowing team has been lucky enough to host their third race of the season yet again at their home venue. They faced Endicott College and Mass Maritime Academy racing a 1v4+, 2v4+ and a 3v4+. After the race concluded, the 1v4+ and 2v8+ completed a time trial to gauge where they would place for their biggest race of the season the following weekend.

Final Results:

1v4+

  • Bryant 7:58.87

  • Endicott 8:38.76

  • Mass Maritime 8:57.97

2v4+

  • Endicott 8:24.55

  • Bryant 8:26.28

  • Mass Maritime 9:01.20

3v4+

  • Bryant 8:33.03

  • Endicott 9:28.06

Race Info:

  • The conditions were consistent throughout most of the race except for a slight tailwind towards the last 1k

  • Once again, Bryant was able to maintain open water between boats, except for the very last portion of the 2v4+’s race

  • Their boat was rigged differently for this race, so it threw the crew off slightly which contributed to their slight loss

  • The time’s from this race are very promising for the NERC race taking place on Saturday, May 4th

  • The head coach believes that all boats have a good chance of meddling next weekend

Up Next:

  • The Bulldogs will be heading to Worcester this Saturday, May 4th to compete in their final Spring season race: The New England Rowing Championships

  • The team will be losing six seniors: Jackie Conley, Rachel Balcom, Rachael & Rebecca Klei, Marlee O’Keefe, and Mara Pretre
