Men’s Crew Goes 1-2 in Varsity Fours at Head of the Fish Regatta

09:25AM / Monday, October 27, 2008

SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY – Williams College claimed the top two places in the Collegiate Varsity Men’s Fours. The new Varsity Eight lineup took 5th place. The JV Eight placed 3rd. The top Novice (Freshman) Four placed 1st, and their Eight placed 7th.

It was a mixed day for the Men’s Crew at the Fish, a day for training and experimentation. The Fours races went off well despite a last-minute lineup change. Due to a sudden facial infection, Dan Costanza ’11 was replaced by Crosby Fish ’10 both in the First Varsity Four and in the Varsity Eight.

The course was shortened to just over 3km for the day’s races. The sky was clear, and there was a moderate headwind increasing towards the end of the straight course. The first Four finished with a time of 11:53.65; the second boat was under 5 seconds behind. Both crews defeated entries from the University of Vermont, Amherst College, Middlebury College, and Colgate.

The second Varsity Four experimented successfully with the Italian Rig (seats 2 and 3 are both port and in tandem) and significantly improved their time off the First boat from the Head of the Housatonic. The third Varsity Four, composed of Rowers from the JV squad, finished 19th.

The Ephs in the top two Fours then jumped immediately into the Eights race. With only an hour between the races, the Varsity Eight managed to place 5th despite fatigue and many lineup changes. The crew was 20 seconds behind the first-place Wesleyan crew, and less than 10 seconds off the other top places. Dan Kenefick ’11 comments: “We might not have ended the season on the highest note, but this will place us in the right attitude and mindset for Winter Training.”

Williams’ JV boat finished a strong 3rd place in their category behind Hobart and Colgate.

In the novice category the Williams Four was victorious by a large margin. Coxswain Michelle Mcrae comments: “We talked with Coach Regan about making a statement as the first men's frosh boat to race this fall. As the first boat in the event, we kept our focus on making it the best piece we possibly could. We tried to shave seconds off our time even without nearby boats to work off of. It was a great way to start out the year.”

The Novice Eight finished in 7th place behind four Cornell boats, Hobart, and St. Lawrence.

The Head of the Fish was the conclusion to the Ephs’ fall racing schedule. Tough Winter Training for the Spring Season looms ahead as the work shifts indoors.
