In the women's novice single, Mariana Catrambone fought for an impressive third place finish despite gusting winds down the course.  For the second day in a row, the women's novice quad, women's jv quad, and men's jv double bested the competition for gold medals.  Keaton Schneider and Luke Evans also rowed their best race of the season to take home a gold medal in the novice double.

Again, excellent job by everyone, and a great way to start medals season!!
