The following roster will be racing at Stotes. There is no novice 2x, 1x or JV1x. Additionally we can only enter one boat in each event so, though we tried, we couldn't enter our girls novice double in the JV event because it is already filled with upper classpeople, though we thought they deserved a race.

Garden States/Cooper Cup

13 top 3 finishes and 29 medals collected in two days at the Garden State Championships and Cooper Cup. Two days of tough racing brought lots of hardware to Haddon Township Athletes. 5 boats were crowned NJ State Champions and have officially qualified for the Scholastic National Regatta:

• Girls lt 2x (Juliette/Kate)
• JV Girls 2x (Salena/Sara)
• JV Girls 4x (Emily D./Mandy/Nicole/Cassidy)
• Varsity Girls 4x (Tori/Catie/Emily/Julie)
• JV Boys 4x (Ryan/Jim/Nick/Alec)

Two additional boats medaled at this regatta:

• Varsity 1x: Matt Glace
• JV Boys 2x: Nelson/Alex

Erik Duffy raced a heroic race as a novice in a Varsity race finishing fourth by a whisker, a tremendous accomplishment.

Today's Cooper Cup brought tougher racing but HT crews were still able to grasp medals in three boat categories:

• Women's Novice 2x (Maddie/Kassidy)
• JV Girls 4x (Listed above)
• Varsity Girls (Listed above)

All in all, it was a tremendous weekend for the Hawks!
