CBC goes fishing in Saratoga - Head of the Fish results

Cascadilla had a very successful couple of days at the Head of the Fish Regatta in Saratoga Springs. Thankfully the weather was about 20F warmer than last year, with markedly less precipitation. The masters competed Saturday, and the scholastic athletes competed on Sunday. Both groups brought back some fish heads - the notorious and much-coveted ugliest trophy in rowing (Rockett's newest fish head, "Caroline," pictured below for reference..nb they don't all come with names, Caroline is special).  

Scholastic Results:
First in the Mixed Junior 4x and the Girls' 1V 2x! 
Eighth of forty-one crews in the Boys' 2x
Eleventh of thirty-one crews in the Boys' 2V 4+
Tenth of twenty-six crews in the Girls' 1V 4+
Eleventh of twenty-six crews in the Girls' 2V 4+
Fourteenth of thirty-three crews in the Girls' 1V 8+
Eleventh of twenty-three crews in the Boys' Freshman/Novice 4+
Sixteenth of thirty-one crews in the Girls' 1V 2x

Emily Rockett and Savannah Brija placed fourth in the Women's Open 2x, behind three Arion boats (.04 seconds behind the third, to be exact...)
Tim Willsallen and Marty van der Heide placed fourth in the Men's Masters 2x (second in raw time)

In an exciting Mixed Masters' 2x race at the very end of the day, Kim McKnight and Cornell grad assistant Savannah Brija rowed to a very respectable fifth place finish (third in raw time). Emily Rockett subbed into an Upper Valley boat with John Tunnicliffe, placing third (first in raw time.)

Full results should be on Streamline Rowing, but I can't get them to show up. Your best bet is twitter: https://twitter.com/nysrowing?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor. 

Many thanks to all the parent volunteers who helped with our most logistically challenging regatta. The juniors' season wraps up next weekend with Pull the Plug in Pittsford!
