Florida Tri-Race Provides Early Season Lessons

AJRA rowers took to the water for the first races of the Spring Season on Feb. 26 in Tallahassee in a tri-race with OARS and CCR.  These two Florida teams represent some of the strongest competition in the SE Region each year.   In addition to giving our rowers valuable race experience, the races help coaches see how our boats stack up this early in the season.   

Highlights include our 2nd Varsity Women’s 8 placing 2nd ahead of CCR in two races and our 3rd VW’s 8 coming in 1st.  For the Varsity Men, the 1st  8 placed 2nd ahead of CCR in one race and the 2nd VM 8 earned 2nd in front of CCR in two races. 

Congratulations to our Novice Women and Men with close to half of the rowers on those squads completing their first competition this past weekend!
