Palmetto High's new Rowing Crew celebrated their first regatta invitational on Saturday March 12, 2011. There were 4 boats that competed in the races. The boys 8 raced at a varsity 3 level. The 2 girls 8's raced at the novice level and another boy's 8 raced at a novice level. It was our first race after being on the water after 5 weeks. We all did very good even though we lost the races. The boys ended up doing very good and beat a couple teams and a few racing times.
Our coaches were all impressed with us, the other day at practice we had a special visitor. Laura Embry, Jane Lynche's wife. She was impressed with as well. She said for only being on the water for 5 weeks and then racing was remarkable. We are all keeping up the hardwork and will soon start winning those medals. "Get it in Get it in. That's the ticket", as coach Jon would say :)
