BOSTON – With a strong international field this weekend, the Saint Joseph’s women’s rowing team put in a strong performance across their three events at the Head of the Charles Regatta.
“We had a great trip to Boston; the results were really solid. Most important to us is where we stand against our A-10 competition and we’re in really good timing. We’ve overcome a lot this fall and we’re looking forward to it where we can go as a team,” said the Saint Joseph head coach Gerry Quinlan.
