Philadelphia - Drexel rowing opened its fall season at the Navy Day Regatta on the Schuylkill River on Saturday as the women's varsity eight finished fifth among 11 boats with a time of 15:39.7. The Dragons crossed the finish line ahead of boats from Rutgers, Temple, Saint Joseph's, Army, La Salle and Lafayette.The women's novice eight, a boat comprised of rowers competing in their first collegiate race, posted a time of 20:37.3. Drexel also had an entry in the Dad Vail eight race that finished with a time of 18:32.0.
In the season's first regatta, the Drexel rowers had to deal with a considerable headwind that lead to choppy waters on the Schuylkill through much of the race. The regatta was the first at Drexel for new head rowing coach Paul Savell.
“Our goal for this race was two-fold," said Savell. "First, for the varsity to get good competitive racing and find our base line versus our competition and second to give our brand new novice rowers real race experience.”
The women's novice eight was completely comprised of rowers with less then three weeks rowing experience. “I think they put forth a strong effort considering how little water time we have had so far,” said novice women's coach Terah Schamberg.
The varsity eight boat consisted of coxswain Eden Ginn, stroke seat- Candice Webb in the stroke seat, Liz Adler in the seven seat, Vanessa Clifford in the six seat, Chelsea Nowakowski in the five seat, Mary Kain in the four seat, Demi Del Valle in the three seat, Casondra Clawson in the two seat, and Dana Haneman in the bow seat.
Drexel's next race will be on Oct. 27 at the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta.
