Crew wraps up Fall Season
Cal Maritime's Crew Team wrapped up its fall season at the Head of the Lagoon on November 9. All the Keelhaulers had strong races, focusing on working together as a team after the long layoff, with seemingly every boat saving its best performance of the season for last.
Due to a fire on campus and a subsequent week-and-a-half campus closure, the team had little practice over the two weeks leading up to the weekend, but the Keelhaulers came together for their last 5k race of the year.
Fog delayed the start of racing, but once it lifted Cal Maritime competed in eight events, bringing home first in two events and third in three events.
The Keelhaulers finished first in the Men's Novice 8 defeating Sac State and Chico State and in the Men's Collegiate Lightweight 4. They finished third in the Men's Collegiate 8, Collegiate Novice 4, and Collegiate Pair.
It was the first race of the season for the men's and women's novice fours, with both squads rowing well their respective races.
