The Men's Novice 4+, unfortunately, did not make it out of heats but rowed a spectacular race none the less. The Men's Lightweight $+ made history by coming in 3rd in Finals as it was the first time in club history that a men's boat placed at a major regatta. Congrats to all that participated and way to end the season on a fantastic note! Full results of the regatta can be seen here.

The men's team also put up a good fight with the Lightweight Four and Varsity Eight both winning thier races. Way to go Tribe! Augusta Invitational Saturday, March 17th: Congratulations are in order for every boat that raced!

All six boats that entered into the races placed and walked away with medals. The Women's Varsity Eight, the Women's Varsity Four and the Men's Lightweight Four all took first in their races. The Men's Novice Eight, the Women's Varsity Four and the Men's Varsity Four all took third in their races. Unfortunately, William and Mary was just two points shy of winning the overall championship. None the less it was an amazing trip and a great way to start of the spring season. Here is a link to the Augusta Chronicle Article about the race! Hampton Roads Erg Sprints Saturday, February 17th: The team travelled to Hampton Roads to start the racing season off with erg sprints. Everyone rowed extremely well.

All boats did amazingly well, but it was the novice rowers that really took the cake - the novice men's eight got second, the novice women's four also placed second, and the novice women's eight placed seventh. Varsity boats also did a wonderful job, with the varsity women's four placing third amid tough competition, and the men's eight getting second. The varsity women's eight placed eighth, and the varsity men's and alumni fours also did very well. Way to go Tribe! Great season! Head of the Schuylkill Saturday, October 28th ... or it would have been: Alas! We got rained out, and the regatta was cancelled due to the bad weather. But, we have been training hard, and are looking forward to racing at the Head of the Occoquan! Head of the Charles Saturday, October 21st: This regatta is the largest two day regatta in the world, held on the Charles river in Boston, and W&M rowers again did very well. Only the varsity men's and women's fours competed, though a good chunk of the team came up to cheer them on. Both boats placed well, with the women earning ninth out of 23 boats, earning a time of 21:33; and the men coming in tenth out of 28 boats, with a time of 19:09. Great job guys!

Only varsity level boats participated, however there were many novice who also came along to cheer, and their support was much appreciated, and apparantly helped tremendously, as all boats did well. The highlight of the regatta was the Varsity Women's four winning their event, and becoming 'Champion of the Chase'.
