New York State Rowing Champions
This past weekend in Saratoga, the Bay Shore High School Junior Girls 8 won the New York State Rowing Championships with a time of 6:17.80. The winning boat consisted of junior coxswain Arianna Wendt, sophomore stoke Marilyn Mott, seven seat Sophomore Katie Kennedy, six seat Sophomore Michelle Esposito, five seat junior Brittany Quirino, four seat junior Cynthia Kemdziewski, three seat sophomore Catherine Darcy, two seat sophomore Farrah Leone and bow seat junior Emily Lindahl. This is the 2nd time in two years that Bay Shore Crew will be represented at Nationals.
During the first half of the race, the Junior Girls 8 stayed in a close-knit pack with their competitors, but with 750 meters to go, coxswain Arianna Wendt called for a "power of twenty", their signature move, which brought the boat dead even with Burnt Hills and Niskayuna. Over the last 300 meters of the race, the girls sprinted at a rate of 39 strokes per minute and crossed the line in an incredible photo finish which showed Bay Shore's boat two seats up on its competitors. Coach Elizabeth Brennan said of the event, "It was truly an unbelievable race! It's even more amazing that all of their competitors train and compete in the fall and spring and here at Bay Shore we are a spring-only season, and are able to compete at this level!"
Winning the State Championship has earned the girls a bid to the Scholastic Rowing Nationals, to be held in Camden, NJ over Memorial Day weekend. Coach Brennan added, "I have never been so blessed to work with such a great group of student athletes." Congratulations to the entire Bay Shore Junior Girls 8 team and their amazing coach Ms. Brennan.
Joining the girls team will be the Boys Senior 8 coached by Mr. Bill Blackman, who placed 6th at States, enough to earn them a bid to Nationals as well.
