At the Schuylkill Invitational on April 12, Georgetown’s heavyweight team tallied 3 first-place finishes across 8 different races. However, at the Lake Morey Invite, hosted by Dartmouth College on April 26, the men’s heavyweight rowing team only picked up one first-place finish. There is no similar weight restriction on heavyweight rowers, meaning that the crew is able to maximize raw size and strength. In addition to the two U.S. national team invitees, Granger said sophomore heavyweight rower Teddy Mangan is another up-and-coming member of the team. After a few unseasonably warm winters, which allowed them to use the Potomac River year-round, the men’s rowing team moved off the water during January and February to a dry-land conditioning program this year.
