Toledo third Varsity 8+ boat wins gold in final fall competition of season
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – The Toledo women's rowing team wrapped up its fall season at the Bald Eagle Collegiate on Saturday afternoon.
The Rockets raced three boats in the Varsity 8+, with the 3Varsity 8+ boat winning its event and earning gold. The 1Varsity 8+ boat earned silver and finished ahead of boats from Dayton, Northwestern and Illinois.
Toledo was the only team that fielded four Varsity 4+ boats today, a testament to the depth of the program. The Rockets were able to finish ahead of IU, Ohio State and Northwestern throughout those races.
The Rockets closed out the fall season on a high note and look to carry the momentum from this portion of the campaign into the winter training session. The team learned and grew at each race this fall and looks forward to getting back on the water in the spring.
Quoting Head Coach Chris Bailey-Greene
"Overall, this was a solid finish to our fall season. The entire fall we've been working on improving during every single race, especially with how young our team is. Today we ran into a team in Purdue that finished second in the ACRA National Championship last season. For us to race against upperclassmen that have raced together for a long time and compete at a high-level, we did a great job. We have improved since our first regatta this fall, and I expect our young team to get better throughout this winter training season as we prepare to get back on the water in the spring."
"The vibes are high with this team and I think that the experience we have gained this fall will carry us into the spring season and even into next fall when the team continues to grow and we field a total of about 60 people."
"We're taking the season one week at a time and one regatta at a time. We're getting to a point where we are sustainable and forward-thinking while also enjoying our experiences in big races. Looking forward to our winter training period and to keep moving the program forward."
Up Next
Toledo returns to action on Saturday, April 3 at the Lubbers Cup hosted by Grand Valley State in Grand Rapids, Mich.
