Men's Crew Opens Spring in Winning Way
3.18.17 | Men's Crew
PHILADELPHIA -- The Temple men's crew team had two events nearly 850 miles apart, but found similar success in both, as the Owls opened the spring racing season in winning fashion. Temple nabbed victories at the Jacksonville Sprints and then on their home course over Lehigh on the Schuylkill River.Â
Down in Florida, the Owls grabbed wins in varsity eight and second varsity eight racing. In the "Vera Hutton," Temple clocked in a 5:27.58 to top Jacksonville's varsity eight (5:33.36). In second varsity racing, Temple's "'Jed' Dietrich" boat topped Jacksonville, 5:44.37 to 5:49.70.Â
On the banks of the Schuylkill, Temple notched victories in both races against Lehigh, as the Owls rowed out of their newly renovated boathouse for the first time. The Temple lightweight eight topped both the Lehigh varsity eight and second varsity eight to open the racing. In the second event of the day, the Owls again came out on top, as the freshman eight defeated Leigh, with the Owls' third varsity boat taking third.Â
Temple is back in action next weekend, hosting the 2017 Murphy Cup Regatta.
