We successfully hosted the Hampton Roads Rowing Club's erg pull on Saturday the 11th. It was three years since the last "in-person" erg pull at CHS that we had hosted back in 2020. Like in 2020, the top junior rower was a Crusader! Matt Rakowski, coxed by Zoe Fischer, posted the lowest time for a high school athlete with 2000m time of 6:48.6. It was exciting to watch Matt's "boat" in lane 4 lead for most of the race.
Most of the Crusaders who pulled posted PRs. Highlights include sub-8:00 times in the U-17 boys event for Alan Nicholas who finished 3rd in his heat and 4th overall, Alex Hudson who finished 2nd in his heat and 22nd overall, and Kylan Jimenez who finished 3rd in his heat and 23rd overall in the event.
In the U-19 event for boys, Michael Pak finished 13th. In the U-17 event for girls, Sophia Klaus finished 11th. In the U-15 event for girls, Kiki Lehner finished 5th. In the U-15 event for boys, Hunter Heckman finished 9th.
In event #10, the less-than-2000m races were held. In the girls' coxswain race, Zoe, coxed by Alan, won the event with a 1000m time of 4:18.7, beating out two coxswains from Great Bridge. A second gold medal!
The concession tent was run by parent volunteers. Thanks to all who helped out! If anyone has additional photos, please send them to me. Full results are on the HRRC's website.
