Club 4+ leads the way in 15th
BOSTON, Mass. – The Boston College rowing team wrapped up the first day of competition with three top-25 finishes at the 61st annual Head of the Charles Regatta on Saturday, Oct. 17.
Three crews raced on Saturday: the Club 4+ and two Club 8+.
"Always fun to compete on our home course and against some of the best in the world!" said head coach Grace Hallowell. "Great to have two crews pushing each other in the Club 8 and gutsy racing in the Club 4 in tough conditions. Effort was high across all crews, and we are looking forward to continuing to develop over the next few weeks with eyes on racing our best in November."
Kicking off the weekend was the Club 4+, coxed by Lucy Fortner and stroked by Ella Ryan, Lauren Craven, Callaghan Nickerson, and Quinn Baker. The Club 4+ placed 15th out of 48 boats in a time of 19:44.135.Â
In the women's club eights, Boston College's first Club 8+ finished 18th out of 41 crews. Coxed by Hanna Moustakas and stroked by Chloe Wilkinson, Grier McKenzie, Amirah Easter, Eva Croney-Ferraiuoli, Leila Fairchild, Georgia Legere, Madeline Newall, and Leighton Davis in a time of 17:51.729.Â
