Justin Moore of Williams College named CRCA Coach of the Year - June 12, 2008
For the second time in three years the Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association (CRCA) has named Justin Moore the national women's rowing coach of the year in NCAA Division III for leading the Ephs to the NCAA title.
Moore was also honored in 2006 when the Ephs won the first of their record three consecutive NCAA Division III titles. Moore also guided Williams to the first NCAA Division III title offered by the NCAA in 2002, giving Williams the most overall rowing titles with four.
The 2008 Pocock CRCA coach of the year award recognizes head coaches who fit one or more of the following criteria:
He/she has had outstanding success during the current season.
He/she has demonstrated great team improvement from the prior season.
He/she has fulfilled his/her team’s potential.
He/she has demonstrated a high level of professionalism and integrity as a coach.
John Murphy of Brown University was named the Division I winner and John Fuchs of Western Washington was the winner in Division II.
"To even be mentioned with a legend like John Murphy of Brown who has the best program in the country despite demanding academics and John Fuchs of Western Washington who has won four straight NCAA titles is incredible," said Moore.
"There are a lot of coaches who do a good job, but you don't get this kind of recognition without having great athletes and I know that and so does every coach. I'm so grateful that I work at Williams where we have incredibly dedicated student-athletes who are willing and capable of going out and executing my vision of rowing… without them no one would even know my name."
Moore's Ephs garnered the 2008 NCAA title when his V1 boat finished second in the Grand Final and his V2 boat was third in the Grand Final. The Eph V2 boat was the first V2 boat to win its first heat at the NCAA Championships and advance directly to the Grand Final. With two boats in the Grand Final the Ephs out pointed NESCAC foe Trinity 25-21 to capture the title. |
