Dad Vail Regatta 2009


This year saw the VCU Men's Varsity IV go on to compete at Dad Vails in Philadelphia, PA. Dad Vails is the largest collegiate regatta in the United States.

Our boys pushed hard and they came 20th in the time trials-- missing the qualifying 18th position by only 1 second!

However, the row was solid, and as a show of their effort and determination, they also beat big names such as John's Hopkins, Vassar, Boston College, Amherst, Temple, NC State, Drexel, NY Maritime, Michigan, and George Mason.

Well done, guys! What a way to end the season!

Crew:
