Head of the Schuylkill photo dump📸

A successful Saturday was had for Union Crew at Head of the Schuylkill! We could not have asked for a better weekend to wrap up our Fall season.

From here, the Crew team will start buckling down for Finals and will head home for Winter Break in November. Stay tuned for a photo dump from the Schuylkill.

Happy Race Day! The Garnet Chargers are racing in Philly on this beautiful sunny morning at the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta.

The Head of the Schuylkill Regatta is over 50 years old, getting its start in 1970 and quickly growing into one of the largest regattas in the country (that’s over 9,000 competitors racing this weekend)! We are humbled to be part of such great rowing history and excited to race some competitive teams today.

Schedule:
Men’s Frosh/Novice 8+: 11:35am

It is always good to see our Rowing Alumni doing big things! Harrison White ‘24 and Sarah DeRosa 25’ are continuing their respective rowing and coxswains careers down at Riverside Boat Club where they get to wake up and train on the Charles River every morning!

Celebrating another Senior Award Ceremony is always bittersweet, as it means we’re preparing to say goodbye to another graduating class. This year, we are saying goodbye to 10 amazing Seniors!

To this year’s graduating class: You have grown, you have led and you have left your mark on the team. We thank you for your leadership, your speed, your humor and your friendship. Though we will miss you, we cannot wait to see the great things you do!

Here’s to the Class of 2025!!!! Enjoy your graduation!

We are also celebrating our Men’s Varsity and 2nd Varsity 8+’s clean sweep at The Great Adirondack Boat Race! With some very fast racing against St. Lawrence, the 2nd Varsity 8+ ended up winning by four boat lengths and the Varsity 8+ won by a tight and exciting 3/4 of a length!!!! Another great way to wind down the season before ending it with our Banquet and Awards on Tuesday the 13th!
