Rowing Completes Fall Season at the Head of the Schuylkill

The Canisius rowing team concluded its fall season in the Head of the Schuylkill, racing in a 29-team field on the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia, Pa.

HEAD COACH MATT COSMANN POST RACE COMMENTS
"I am happy with today's results. As a team, we performed better than last year, and this was a deeper field. We know now where we are relative to a lot of crews we' will see in the spring and can calibrate accordingly."

The Golden Griffins' 2nd Varsity Eight shell clocked a 14:06.27 finish, claiming 25th place out of 54 boats entered in the Women's Club Championship Eights. In the same race, the 3V8 shell recorded a 34th place finish at 14:37.22.

The Varsity 8 boat rounded out the afternoon for Blue and Gold, finishing 18 out of 27 boats in the Women's Championship Eights with a  time of 13.14.15.
