Season Preview: Saints Look For Continued Success, Open Season on Sunday

Following a strong end to the 2023-24 season, the St. Lawrence University men's rowing team's Varsity 8 recorded a second-place finish at the Liberty League Championships and are eager to open the 2024-25 season on Sunday at the Mohawk Fall Classic Regatta.

Last season, at the Liberty League Championships, St. Lawrence took second with a time of 6:13.129, just 5.121 seconds behind Ithaca, who took first. The Scarlet and Brown bested RIT, Union and Skidmore. The 2V8 finished their race in fifth place with a final time of 7:00.300.
 
For their second-place finish, two senior Saints garnered First-Team All-Liberty League honors, while two other members of last years senior class earned Second-Team accolades.

After opening the season at the Mohawk Fall Classic Regatta this weekend, the Scarlet and Brown will make a trip to Rochester for the Head of the Genesee on October 12. The Saints will then travel to Cambridge, Mass. for the prestigious Head of the Charles before wrapping up the fall portion of their schedule at the Head of the Fish in Saratoga Springs on October 26. After a chilly winter season in the North Country, the Saints will head for warmer weather for spring training before getting back on the water up North.

St. Lawrence also welcomes a big and talented first-year class in Coleman Hayes, Charles Levy, Nathan Makowka, Howard Mandell, Matthew McGee, Logan Roderick, Luke Rucolas, and Kai Wilson. 

The Saints' sophomore class is made up of Catherine Cooksey, Auden Flinn, Riley Gale, Peter Loud, Hannah Lyman, John McCormick, Kirby Oppenheimer, Austin Phelps, and Nikolas Zocchi, while the juniors returning this season are Chris Augustine, Paul Champagne, Rowen Fremouw, Cameron Kennedy, and Sam Weber.  

Returning for their senior campaigns in 2024-25 are Filip Bruna, Adam McGee and Sam Sternhagen.
