In an effort to emulate and be the best, we are going to start posting videos every so often to give you a better idea of what you should look like on the water, and different techniques to get you there. Some videos will be coaches teaching technique, others will simply be of crews rowing well. For the athletes, watch these videos, look for things that are different from what you are doing, and try to make those changes on the water. For the parents, hopefully this can help you understand a little more about the anatomy of a stroke and what goes into making a boat fast.
The first post is a video of coach John Driessen (Australian National Team) teaching relaxation, balance, recovery, catch preparation, and front end load. Click HERE to watch the video. After the first video, take a look at some of the things he talks about in action with different examples of good blade work. Click HERE to watch the video. GO HAWKS!!!

HTCC had a solid day of racing in the cold, rain, wind, and chop on the Schuylkill River yesterday, coming away with 4 first place finishes!
John B, Owen, Jake, and Jon W started the day for the Hawks in the novice quad. The had a great start but an unfortunate early crab forced them to race from well behind the whole way down the course. The boys didn't get flustered, however, and put in a strong piece! Jack H and Jay were up next, getting an early lead in the JV double and pressing away the whole way down the course, finishing with a 12 second victory over second place! Anthony, Davey, Tristan, and Nolan took the second victory of the day for the Hawks in the JV quad. The boys battled with Holy Spirit the whole way down the course and were able to pull away through the island after a Holy Spirit crab and earned a 10 second victory! Nick and Mason raced next in the varsity double. They looked great coming down the course, fighting against tough competition. Unfortunately a late crab left them back in the field at the finish. Aidan, Vince, Jack H, and Jack S put together the strongest piece of the season in the varsity quad, closing the gap on the top of the field and showing that they are moving forward! Kerry and Sara earned the third victory for the Hawks, racing to a dominating win in the novice double! Great job girls! Fiona, Maya, Olivia, and Quinn continued the unbeaten streak for the girls freshman quad, pulling away from a strong field and looking great as we head into championship season! Emily raced next in the JV single, putting together a great piece and moving herself into the top position coming into the last few hundred meters. Unfortunately her blades got caught up with the boat next to her and sent her swimming before crossing the finish line. Morgan and Alex finished the day for the Hawks in the varsity double. They looked solid coming down the course, finishing in third place, only 2.5 seconds off of second. With lots of room for improvement, we are excited to see them go forward this season!

Quinn, Maya, Kerry, and Fiona started the morning off by crushing the field in the women's freshman quad, winning by 13 seconds over second place! Owen, John B, Adam, and Jon W, came next for the hawks in the men's freshman quad. They rowed strong and had one of their best pieces yet! We look forward to seeing what they are able to do next week! Nick went next in the men's JV single. After only two practices in the single, he put together a very strong piece and made some great technical improvements from earlier in the week! Great job Nick! Davey and Jay followed Nick with a victory in the men's JV double! The boys rowed extremely well together and showed what they were made of by walking through another crew to earn the victory! The third victory for the Hawks came in the men's JV quad as Mason, Tristan, Jack H, and Jack S powered the Aggression down the course for a 16 second victory over second place!! Morgan, Emily, Olivia, and Sara had a tough race in the women's varsity quad, facing some of the fastest crews they will see all year. With three novices and two freshman in the quad they raced extremely well! We are excited to see what these girls can do as the year goes forward!
