College Coxing Q&A

Question of the Day

I am going into my senior year as a rower and am looking at colleges. One college that I’m really interested in only has a club team. Do you think they would let me be a coxswain even though I have only ever been a rower? I am 5’4 and around 125 lbs.

Definitely. Most club teams are pretty lax when it comes to the rowing norms since a larger majority of the team is comprised of people who have never rowed (or in some cases, have never participated in sports) before. You could probably even keep rowing if you wanted to.
