CREW/ROWING- COMPETITIVE

Crew is a sport that defines teamwork. Everyday, this club goes out and works together to row as eight people sharing one technique. If your heart is into it, and you feel like you are ready to meet the challenge, then crew's coaches can take you, experienced and non-rowers, and make you competitive in a field of high competition. There is no greater feeling than taking home a medal after a semester of hard work and dedication. All are welcome from novice to the experienced men and women.
