My favorite aspect of rowing is… My teammates, we all literally have to work together and everyone comes giving their best effort because they know their performance directly affects the rest of the team.
What made you want to become a rower… A family friend was on the varsity team and my family came to watch and I thought that it was really cool and different from other sports.
