Quick Update:
We have posted a Preliminary Schedule for the races at Hanover NH this coming weekend.
The food table will be more of a challenge and will be more important for the athletes. A preliminary menu has been posted below. Please volunteer to bring food and help if you can.
The trip to Hanover is a quick 40 minutes up I-93 to Manchester and then a scenic hour long drive in I-89 to Hanover, the home of Dartmouth College.
Over the years many Andover Crew Alumni have raced on the Connecticut River for Dartmouth College. Miles Hudgins '21 rows for the Heavyweight team. We have a soft spot for their Head Coach, Wyatt Allen
who coached my daughter at UW. Our friend Marth Beattie is a volunteer coach with the women. Amongst Martha's many accolades are that she is the only woman to have coached B1 at Andover and was in the
very first class of women at Dartmouth. Martha's son and daughters all rowed for Andover.
Hanover is a beautiful town for a walk after the races. You can have a very good meal in the Hanover Inn Hotel or excellent pub food at Murphy's on the Green before you drive all the way back to Boston. If you are more adventurous you can have a superb meal at the Simon Pearse glass studio and restaurant in Quechee Vermont.
We have posted some pictures of practice on the Mighty Merrimack. Click here to jump to Spring 2025 pictures.
Our opening season races will now be this coming weekend with Deerfield, BC High, St. John’s Prep for the boys and Deerfield, Glastonbury and CRI for the girls.
Come on down to the river and enjoy the excitement of the races. With 5 visiting schools, come early to grab a parking space. There are a few handicapped parking spaces in front of the Boathouse for those that need them.
If you cannot travel to support the team, you can follow the races on live video of our home races in our Facebook group. When you ask to join the group, remember to enter your athlete's name
as your connection to the group. Click here for the group

Older News:
The Kent races were canceled due to extreme weather conditions. We were on I-90 heading west but had to turn around. The top boats returned to our boathouse to unload the trailer, rig the boats for Monday and do an erg piece.
At least we can say we are undefeated so far this season. We think this is the first time in the 70 year history apart from COVID, that we have canceled the first two races.
It is Spring racing season. In fall we row, in Spring we race. All rowers are now competing for places in racing boats. If they make a boat go faster they move up the line. Everyone is pushing to make their boat go faster. Fall rowing is warm and cuddly, Spring rowing is not.
The team had a fantastic pre-season trip to Texas to find their river rhythm again before the seasons starts on the Mighty Merrimack. A big 'Thank you" to the everyone involved in organizing the trip.
The racing seasons starts with the boys racing away at Salisbury.
So friends and family block out all the weekends from now to May 24th. This season we will be away on April 12th to Kent, both in Connecticut and April 26th to Hanover NH. All other races will be at home until NEIRAs.
Supporters responsibility during racing season is most importantly to cheer like crazy in the last 500 meters.
Family supporters also provide food for the rowers. This is very important, the rower have to re-fuel within the hour.
Any delay will affect their recovery time. Please make sure we keep them healthy.
Our rowers practice endless hours on the water to lay down an extreme effort over 6 minutes and 1500 meters of water.
It is not a good idea to try this on a full stomach. So our rowers do not eat much before a race.
We feed them after the race to help them recover.
This week we will be traveling with the tribe again. This time to the far wild north on the actual
border between New Hampshire and Vermont. The town of Hanover, the home of Dartmouth College and Hanover High School.
We will be racing Hanover and Bedford. The Hanover boathouse,108 Lyme Rd, Hanover, NH 03755, is about 3.5 miles north of the town on the Connecticut river.
Parking for the regatta will be at the Middle School at 63 Lyme Rd, Hanover, NH 03755 about 2 miles from the boathouse.
There will be no parking at the boathouse or Wilson's landing for rowers or spectators. The only parking on site is for the trailers from each school, two
food parent trucks from each school, and coaches vehicles. Shuttles will be running from 11:00am- 4:45pm constantly.
The schedule will be confirmed on Raceday after discussions with our visitors.
Race day - Tribal travel to the Hanover boathouse,108 Lyme Rd, Hanover, NH 03755,.
The rowers have to eat carefully before races and need to eat almost immediately afterwards to replace the expended energy to ensure a swift recovery. Our parents run a food
table to feed the rowers as they come off the water.
We need volunteers to be leaders for the food table this year. Just for this weekend at Kent, Rosy Darby will come out of retirement to organize the food table.
Please check out this
Hanover plus food table list
Please click the signup sheet or email Rosy at andovercrew@andovercrew.com and let us know what you can bring for this race.

Sunny:
Temperature: 55 (but remember it is New England!).
UV index: 3.
Humidity: 78%.

Thanks
See you by the river! Go Blue!
Boats launch onto the Connecticut river near from the dock at the boathouse. It is a smaller dock and Hanover will have their own dockmasters. Most races take place going up stream,
starting down the race course near the UVRF docks and ending at the finish line by the docks at the boathouse.
The Hanover boathouse,108 Lyme Rd, Hanover, NH 03755, is about 3.5 miles north of the town on the Connecticut river.
Parking for the regatta will be at the Middle School at 63 Lyme Rd, Hanover, NH 03755 about 2 miles from the boathouse.
There will be no parking at the boathouse or Wilson's landing for rowers or spectators. The only parking on site is for the trailers from each school, two

Rowing is a team sport. There is no concept of MVP. It is all about the boat and the greater team. The top G1 and B1 boats are made faster by all the rowers below pushing them to justify their places in the top boats. When any boat captures gold at Interschols they are representing the whole team.
Coaches start out with their best guess at boat groupings. They observe the melding of the crew. They make changes to improve the speed. Eventually they may “seat race” the last couple of places in a boat. This means swapping rowers in and out of the boat to see who can make the difference. Spring racing is serious, there is no room for personal preference. Only boat speed matters.
The same philosophy applies to coxswains although it is a little more difficult for the casual observer to see and understand. The first requirement of a coxswain is boat safety. The first racing requirement is to steer well in all circumstances. This is not as simple as it sounds. A 60 ft. shallow draught boat is wobbled by unbalanced rowers, pulled off course by currents and blown off course by winds. A long thin boat reacts slowly to steering corrections. A good coxswain looks ahead to sense currents and winds to ensure the best true line to the finish. There is always a race plan but the opposition sometimes has other ideas so a good coxswain has to modify the race plan on the fly. So in one of these serious spring races, the coxswain is steering, calling the rowing rate, watching for changes ahead, telling the boat their position in the race and trying to urge them on with calls that connect with their deep down inner strength. There needs to be a bond of trust between the rowers and the coxswain. All of our Andover coxswains are brilliant. On the water only the coach and crew can tell which coxswain fits best with each boat.
As we work through the spring the top boats are usually stable but the lower boats are changed around from week to week as rowing skills improve. Coxswains in the lower boats are also swapped around to try and share the racing experience. The goal of the season is to create top boats that win medals at Interschols and beyond and lower boats that acquire the racing skills to move up in the coming years.
The kids work very, very hard every day on the Merrimack in rain, hail and even snow. Hours of freezing cold, painful muscles and nasty looking hand blisters. All for a race that last about 6 minutes. That is 6 minutes of extreme effort and pain with glory or failure at the end.
So what can parents do? Provide support and encouragement. Share your amazement at their efforts and if you live within traveling distance you can come to the races to yell “Go Blue!” Everyone is very welcome at all the races. The rowers might not always express it very well but they really do appreciate supporters on the river bank. Of course we guarantee bright sunshine for every race.
Races at home and away are almost full day events. The rowers have to eat very carefully before the races and are always ravenous afterwards. The parents organize a food table for the rowers so that each boat can eat as soon as they have stowed their racing shell after the race. We will have a group of volunteers to organize and run the food tables at the races. We will have a number of other volunteer tasks.
We will publish directions to the away boathouses.

To help understand the strange world and words of Crew we recommend the following links.
All the new words, there will be a test
How to row but you are not allowed to use this to critique
Different types of boats and rigging
What rowers eat
Given that many races are decided by 0.2 seconds it might be good to listen to a video created by the Canadian team with a speech from a movie.
Please forgive the swear words.
If the Inches video has raised your blood pressure than you can be calmed by this video made by Oscar Tang'56 on his retirement as President of the Board of Trustees.

we like to keep a list of Andover Crew Alums racing for colleges this spring. Please email andovercrew@andovercrew.com with names and colleges of anyone you know racing this spring.. If you are lucky enough to attend a regatta with these athletes, wish them well. GOOD LUCK for the season!!
To live is to row, to row is to race, to race is to test the limits. NEIRA beckons.
A Call to Oars:
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;
Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,
Hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit
To the full height. On, on, you noblest rowers.
Whose limbs were made in New England show us here
The mettle of your pasture; let us swear
That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;
For there is none of you so mean and base,
That hath not noble lustre in your eyes.
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
Cry 'Go for myself, my family and Andover Crew!'
(Mostly from Henry V Act 3 Scene 1)
- Apologies to Will Shakespeare.

For past years' results go to Row2k results and enter the year.
The times listed are approximate times for the first racing boat to go on the water. The teams and supporters arrive about an hour earlier to setup for the races.
GO BLUE!!Crew is a little different from other sports. All the students, boys and girls, everyone from varsity first boat to the sixth boat, train together, practice together, race together. Everyone jumps on the same bus for the bone-rattling trip to the boathouse. Everyone helps with the launches. Everyone shares the same cold wet days on the Merrimack. Everyone shares the same pain, the same pleasure. Everyone will have the same joy as the boat starts to sync and the speed increases. There is no individual effort. There is no individual glory. Only one boat, eight rowers, one coxswain, one shell. A racing boat.
Below is a multimedia section including a video of this year's (07) interschols, Michelle's call and video from Henley '06 and a documentary video about Andover crew made by Katherine Adams '06. Recently we have noticed people referring to Andover crew as a world class program. The shallow reason for such an accolade is probably the recent racing performance such as B1 with two silvers and a gold and G1 with three silvers in the last three New England Championships. We think the program is world class because of the spirit of Andover crew down through all 12 boats. We hope the videos below will help you visit again with the spirit of Andover crew.

Abingdon Race Henley '06 - Michelle's Coxswain's Call: You can feel the spirit as you listen to this race from Henley '06. Abingdon, one of the top English schools, used their fantastic start to take an early lead of over a boat length. Lesser crews would have crumbled. Andover clawed back into the race and then pulled off a tremendous sprint to take the victory.
Click the CONE for a video combination of the coxswain's recording and the TV recording of the Abingdon-Andover race. The video will start with a photograph of the team racing at Henley. The TV footage from www.rowtv.co.uk will appear for the last 500 meters.
Andover Crew video: Katherine Adams created this Andover crew video in the Spring of '04. As you watch this movie

Coach Taylor Washburn '03' Director of Andover Crew.
Taylor is an '03 graduate of PA. He rowed at Andover and Princeton before going on to row with the US National Lightweight Team. He comes back to Andover with coaching experience at Andover, NMH and Tabor. His 2012 Tabor B1 lost the NEIRA championship to Andover B1, coached by his father, by 0.233 of a second. We are told he has improved. :-)The goal is to inspire happy rowers to learn to row in the fall and win the New England Championship in the spring. We all wish Taylor and his team every success.
Coach Dale Hurley joined us in 2006 and has been a inspiration to our young rowers ever since with his famous launch cry of "What do you do when you are not having fun?" "PULL HARDER".

She has coached at Wellesley College, Kansas State University, and the University of California at Berkeley, as well as at high school programs including the Winsor School, Greater Lawrence Rowing, and CRI where she won the Isabel Bohn Award from US Rowing, recognizing her significant achievement in providing opportunities in rowing for athletes with disabilities.
Coach Andy Finch learned to row at Boston University. After four years with the BU program, and upon graduation, Andy went on to row on the Lightweight US National Team for 3 years; 1994, 1995, and 1996. Coach Finch has previously coached at Brooks School, Philips Exeter, and more recently founded the rowing program at St. John's Prep in Danvers, MA. He continues to row and competes annually in the Head of the Charles Regatta which he has only missed once since his first in 1991.

Captain election results:
Girls' Team co-Captains '23/24:Maya Rodgers and Giuliana Cardinale.
Boys' Team Captain '23/24: Luke Francis.
O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up--for you the flag is flung--for you the bugle trills;
For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths--for you the shores a-crowding;
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Walt Whitman
Some pictures from the Merrimack. I jump on a coach's launch to try and take these pictures. I only capture the students assigned to that coach. I know every parent is primarily interested in pictures of their favorite athlete. I will try to capture all the students over a number of trips on the river with the different coaches. On race days I do my best to capture every athlete. A big thank you to the coaches for allowing me to join them.
If any parent would like to share their photographs on this site, please email andovercrew@andovercrew.com and together we will make it happen.![]() launching with Coach Ellen Mitzner |

It is with great sadness that today, we learned that our friend, John Dent, passed away, peacefully, after his battle with cancer. John has been a long time member and friend of the Andover family from his days coaching on the Merrimack to his more recent assistance with Henley visits. He enriched the lives of many of us. He will be missed tremendously. Our condolences go to his family.

We have re-ordered Andover Crew hats. Most of the hats this year will be white with blue embroidery. Every rower and coach will get a free hat before Grandparents' Weekend.
Any leftover hats will be available for $20.
If you would like a hat please email andovercrew@andovercrew.com.
The hats are lightweight with a built in sweat band.:
