Collegiate Women: GW Invitational Crew Classic
April 12, 2003; Washington, DC - Potomac River

Submitted by Steve Peterson.

Distance: 1500
Wind: strong head winds
Water: flat
Current: extremely strong current
Comments: Extremely challenging conditions forced regatta officials to switch the course and race upriver against the current and wind, instead of downriver as usual. Because of this, there were nho stakeboats, so all starts were floating starts, and the course was limited to only 1500. In the women's 2nd varsity eight GW caught an overhead crab in the first 5 strokes which dropped them far from behind.
