S5E23: Rowing to College
Episode description
You have questions about rowing in college. Nobody can guarantee admission, but the high school athlete can learn how to put their best foot forward, formulate a plan, and find a school that fits academically, athletically, and socially.
- Want to be recruited to row in college?
- Where do I start getting recruited to row in college?
- When - and how - do I contact coaches?
- Why aren’t coaches getting back to me?
- Wondering what college coaches expect from potential recruits?
- How can parents support their student athlete?
In this episode, our expert panelists Fran Berlin & Carmen Mirochna of Rowers Reach explain the recruiting process, explore the options at club, DI, DII and DIII programs, and talk about realistic goals and expectations. Rounding out the panel are high school coach & UMass alum Kelsey Anderson, prospective D1 rower parent Meg Carroll, and Rochester sophomore Grace Snyder, a 2021 walk-on coxswain.
