Submitted by Pam Krause. Distance: 1500m
Conditions: Chilly, damp day with occasional showers, and very little wind.  The water was nearly flat and the rowing conditions were excellent.  Races were a floating start.
Comments: Good races, thanks for joining us!

** The Boy's 1st Varsity 8 showed impeccable good sportsmanship after the race by extending hand shakes to the Hingham team for a well executed race.  Thanks for representing SHS in such a positive way!!!  Sportsmanship is about the appreciation of athletic performance, whether it be about your team or recognizing good play by opposing players.  It's wonderful to see ALL of the SHS rowers exhibiting good sportsmanship by cheering favorably for ALL rowers, both boys and girls, during every race.  WAY TO GO!!! 

Simsbury Invitational, Lake Quinsigamond, April 10 2010 -

Submitted by Ann Carabillo.

Distance: 1500 meters
Conditions: A very strong cross tailwind from the starboard side, with gusts from all sides.
Comments: Races had a floating start and with the wind not all races were the same distance. Great racing by all crews in very strong wind. A special thank you to St. John's and Shrewsbury for organizing the day. In the cup race between Simsbury and Tabor, Simsbury won the Charles A. Pincombe Cup.

History of the Race:   This race began as a traditional duel race between Simsbury and Tabor Academy.  A pitcher was donated by Paul Carabillo in the late 1980's. The "CUP" is named for Charles A. Pincombre. Charlie was a Simsbury team supporter who was a river resident who sculled and had helped remove trees (obstacles) along the river for several years.  Today this regatta is held on Lake Quinsigamond.  The cup remains between Simsbury and Tabor Academy, however; the invited crews include: Simsbury, Tabor Academy, Shrewsbury, East Lyme, Boston Latin (Girls), Stonington and St. John's (Boys).

Textile River Regatta, Lowell MA, October 4, 2009. (click for Girls and Boys results)

• LOW WATER:  TRR made the call to run the Short Course due to low water conditions.  With this version of the course, the Start Line is near the 1-mile mark on the Course Map, and the course gets shorter by about 1400m, going from a 5800m to 4400m nominal length.  Finish Line does not change.
• The day started with some clouds, temperatures in the 60s and gave way to sun in the afternoon and temperatures in the 70s.

We're off and running!  It looks like our first regatta was a big success.  No one missed the bus, there was plenty of delicious food, and the girls V2 walked away with the 3rd place medal!!  Many thanks to the parents who volunteered their time and donated food to support our rowers.  A special thanks to the coaches who always go up and beyond in order to provide our children with a wonderful experience.

The day started cold, but sun brought a beautiful day and 70s.

Shrewsbury vs. Tabor, Hanover - April 29, 2009:

• Girls and Boys

Submitted by Pam Krause.

Distance: 2000m
Conditions: Racing started with a fairly calm, warm sunny day. However, as the afternoon progressed, varsity girls had a slight headwind, then 2nd girls had a tailwind, and by the time the 3rd girls rowed, it was changing over the course from tail, to cross, and back to a headwind. Boys raced V1 down to V3, sandwiched with girls V1-V3, and fours races from other schools, so the racing was spread out over time.
Comments: 3rd girls started about a boatlength over the starting line. Thanks to Tabor and Hanover for coming to Quinsig today.

Quinsigamond Cup - April 25, 2009:

• Girls and Boys

Submitted by Ann Carabillo - Simsbury.

Simsbury Invitational

Girls - Shrewsbury crews started the season off today at Lake Quinsigamond rowing in the SImsbury/Tabor Invitational. The SHS Girls 3rd Varsity was up first and wasted no time making their mark. Placing second behind the perennial powerhouse CRI (community Rowing) which is a regional rowing club the lady Colonials were the fasted true HS team in their division besting 3 CT high schools, SImsbury, East Lyme and Stonington. The girls Second Varsity finished very strong as well placing second among true HS teams.One second behind E. Lyme (CT) and 8 seconds behind the boat from Community Rowing. The Second Varsity had a very strong start and rowed extremely well on the entire course. Community rowing would make it a clean sweep by winning the Girls First Varsity event. The SHS G1V rowers blasted out of the start at a 41 stoke rate and held the lead for the first 800 meters. As CRI was starting to close on SHS, the Shrewsbury boat caught a major crab, nearly stopping the boat. The SHS Crew was able to restart and actually closed two boat lengths before the race ended. Although the crab cost the boat any finish, Coach Abraham was pleased with the boats incredibly strong start and ability to close distance after the crab. Overall, coach Abraham was very happy with today's performances. The girls will go into double sessions for their spring "vacation" and then face off against area crews at Middletown, CT next weekend.

Boys - Need boys correspondent!

Middletown Invitational

Both - Another cold and rainy day in Middletown. Is there ever any sun there? I was not able to attend the race but heard there were no floating logs, no raging currents and no capsized shells this time around. However, the major issue of the day was that the SHS rowers had to use "rentals" as we had a bit of a logistical problem getting the shells to CT. Despite rowing in some unfamiliar equipment that was not rigged to the rowers, the SHS crews dominated a fractured Middletown team. Today was an especially great day for many novice who raced in the 2V and beat their first spring opponent.

Wayland-Weston Invitational

Both - Shrewsbury's First and Second Varsity Crews traveled to Lake Cochituate today to face off against Wayland-Weston RA and Worcester Public School Crews. It turned out to be a tad windy with a quartering headwind and just some light chop on the water. All crews rowed two 1500 meter race pieces and in every event the SHS crew were beaten by Wayland-Weston. WW dominated every race from start to finish period. There was not one SHS boat in the hunt today although SHS Crews did finish ahead of every Worcester boat. Special thanks to Pam Krause for stepping up and hauling the boats to Wayland. SHS Crew is still lacking the proper transportation support for over 100K dollars worth of equipment!

Textile River Regatta

SHS Crews kicked off the fall season by sending 5 boats to the Textile River Regatta this weekend. The 3.2 mile race down the Merrimack river was framed by a perfect fall day with no wind and temps in the mid 70's. The girls First Varsity 4 was first up rowing to a fifth place finish behind Community Rowing, Northfield-Mt Hermon and The Windsor School. They were a very respectable third among true HS teams. The Girls Second Varsity 4 finished the day in 11th out of a field of 18 and about a minute behind the SHS 1V4. The girls Varsity 8 finished 7th just 12 seconds behind 4th place Lowell and behind two crews from Wayland-Weston. On the boys side, the First Varsity 8 rowed to a bronze medal behind two boats from Chaminade HS (long island, ny) and just 8 seconds back from the gold medal boat. The boys second varsity rowed to an 11th place finish just behind the SJ first boat and ahead of the SJ second boat. Every SHS crew looked tremendous on the water today and accomplished the early season goal of technique vs speed and stamina. Next up the Head of the CT. Look for the speed this week!

Head of the Ct.

SHS rowers battled the best crews in the northeast as well as the weather, incredible currents, and a swollen Ct River. The rain let up just long enough to prevent the race from being totally miserable. However, floating debris, nasty currents and headwinds factored in to make this day less than pleasant. The race saw one shell snap in two and a four capsize before the race was called off, much to the chagrin of the girls varsity eight who did not get to row. The girls First Varsity Four was up first rowing the 3 mile course in just over 35 minutes due to the strong currents. The girls held their own against some quality crews managing a 10th place finish. The girls Second Varsity Four finished 14th, about a minute behind the first boat. The boys First and Second Varsity Eights faired a little better. The 1V8 finished 7th and the 2V8 finished 12th just under 2 minutes behind the 1V8. All Varsity crews were off their pace from last weeks regatta. The boy's JV Eight was the big winner of the day earning a bronze medal behind two tough crews from Chaminade and Simsbury. Next up is the Head of the Charles for the boys on Oct 22nd and the Mass State Championship on October 30th for all crews.

Spring 2005 Race Recap

NEIRA

After a full season of spring rowing, the boats in all the New England schools were whittled down to between 12 and 18 of the fastest in each category and invited to row at the prestigious New England Interscholastic Regatta on Lake Quinsigamond. These boats then raced in heats for the opportunity to compete in the Grand Finals featuring the 6 fastest boats of the day. When it came down to the Girls Third Varsity 8 Grand Finals, pulling up to the start in Lane 6 was a group of rowers hardly noticed by the likes of the elite prep schools, St Paul's, Kent, Exeter,  and Andover. They weren't wearing beautifully matched lycra Uni's because not everyone in the boat had one and they weren't in a brand new top of the line shell either. Instead, in a show of unity, they showed up sporting their Blue and Gold tie dyed T-shirts rowing the tired, but trusty old Dirigo. When it was all over 6 minutes later the Lady Colonials were the second fastest boat in New England and the only SHS rowers to ever Medal at NEIRA. It was a gutsy performance which featured an unbelievable battle down the last 500 meters between SHS and Kent which SHS won by a foot. Tremendous job ladies!

More to come on other SHS Rowers at NEIRA..................................

Mass Public

Shrewsbury rowers finished a strong second in a very competitive State Championship Regatta this year. Yesterdays event was marked by cool temperatures, overcast skies and a light wind out of the north. First up were the heats in which boats rowed to qualify for the Grand Finals (medal rounds). All SHS teams were qualifiers in the morning heats advancing to afternoon medal races. The novice races were next on the schedule. SHS rowers dominated this event winning medals at every level starting with the girls 3rd novice team who blew away the competition winning by almost 5 boat lengths. A later protest had them drop to second place after it was determined they strayed out of their lane at the start (a weak protest given the huge victory margin). The girls second novice boat finished ahead of the competition by a half a boat length also taking the gold. Next up was the girls first novice boat who rowed to a strong 3rd place medal finish.

On the boys side the novices dominated....period. The boys second novice boat won by such a commanding lead officials had to send out a search party for their competition. The first novice, also taking the gold, won by a boat length.

The afternoon finals brought more hardware for the SHS rowers. The girls third Varsity boat which has been punishing the competition all year rowed for a Gold medal finish in their event These girls have so many medals around their necks they look like rap stars. Both the girls first and second varsity boats competed in the Grand Finals but did not row as well as they expected finishing a respectable fifth overall in the State against some extremely tough rowing programs.

The boys Varsity boats had a great day despite only rowing together for a very short time as the result of several first boat rowers quitting the team just a week ago. The third varsity, now comprised of mostly novice rowers had an awesome race not only winning the Gold but gaining a huge amount of confidence as members of the next generation of SHS rowers. The boys second varsity and first varsity both won the Bronze against very competitive boats.

Congratulations to ALL SHS ROWERS for a fantastic season. Despite winning the most medals at the State Championship today a well deserved SECOND BEST IN THE STATE! Many difficult and painful hours were dedicate to your team and your boats this year. Rowing is a grueling sport requiring the utmost in teamwork and dedication. All of you who never gave up, gutted it out, and made one sacrifice after another during this season despite a few setbacks should be proud!

AWESOME JOB!

Once again, all SHS Varsity boats qualified for the prestigious New England Invitational Regatta and will be competing against the top schools from all over New England May 28th at Lake Quinsigamond.

THE BEST OF LUCK TO OUR SENIORS! Stay in touch with SHS Crew as you continue to row in college and beyond.

Head of the Textile

A mention of congrats should go out to the ENTIRE SHS crew team for their outstanding performance over this past weekend.  After a very long day participating at the Spirit of Shrewsbury festival the varsity squads headed to Lowell to compete in the Textile River Regatta.  Some early morning transportation issues severely delayed the teams' arrival at the race site, but their discipline focus and training allowed them to unload all of their  gear in an incredibly cramped environment, assemble their boats, and hit the water in time to just make it to the starting line (3 miles up river) in time for their respective races.  Despite the pressure and confusion of the situation, the athletes were able to put all of that behind them to put together one of their best performances thus far.  Of special mention, the SHS girls claimed a 5th and 6th place finish in 2 separate events.  While the boys had an outstanding day, competing in a field of 19 crews from as far away as New York claiming a silver medal in the "junior eight" category, along with a 7th, and 14th place finish by the 2nd and 3rd varsity boats.

On a day where the coaching staff was overwhelmed to see the level of efficiency and display of teamwork required just to make it to the starting line on time, their ability to execute a nearly perfect race was unbelievable.

In addition, the members of the novice team, led by the assistant coaching staff, represented the team with pride and class in the Spirit of Shrewsbury parade on Sunday.  I have received nothing but outstanding reports about the way the athletes conducted themselves.  (Along with some unconfirmed reports of pushups? On Main St..I'm looking into it..) - Coach Lednar
