Winter Crew Begins

Lucy Alessi '26  ~  December 2024

As our winter sports begin, there is a new sport added to the winter lineup this year: Winter crew! In previous years, those who participated in winter crew did not have the option to opt out of gym, as it was not declared as an official sport. This year is different; winter crew has finally been made an official sport and those who are on the team can opt out of gym.

Winter crew is just as physically demanding as spring and fall crew. The team practices after school in the fitness center from 4-6 on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, along with some Friday mornings, and lifts at Impact, which is at HarborCenter, on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The team plans to go on their yearly training trip down in Florida at the Nathan Benderson Training Facility in Sarasota and race there at the Sarasota Invite. The girls are ready to put in hard work this winter to prepare them for their spring racing season!
