The Basics
Drake Rowing continues its season in the Sacred Heart Open in Fairfield, Connecticut, on Saturday, April 26, and Sunday, April 27. The Bulldogs, picked to finish sixth in the MAAC preseason poll, will race against Canisius (picked seventh) on Saturday and Sacred Heart (picked second) on Sunday.
 
Head Coach Charlie DiSilvestro on the Race
"We're very excited. We haven't seen any conference teams yet, so this is our first chance to race against some of the best in our conference. We've had good training this week. It was nice to get a little break over the Easter weekend, and we're ready to race the final three regattas of the season. The team has been training very hard for them all, so we're very prepared."
 
Last Time Out
The Bulldogs won the regatta in Farmer City, Illinois. They took home a trophy for the Illinois Collegiate Rowing Invitational.
