2021 Outlook - "Since last August Northeastern University has done a remarkable job of navigating the COVID-19 challenge. All students are COVID tested 3x per week and the protocols for preventing transmission of COVID, contact tracing, and quarantining have proven to be very robust and effective. All students, including student-athletes, have had and continue to have the option of learning in-person or online. About 80% of our team has opted to return for in-person on-campus learning and team training.

"We made all training during the fall season optional and focused mainly on small boat rowing and endurance training. Our boathouse is about 5 miles from campus and we saw a solid number of oarsmen biking down to the boathouse 3-6 days per week to train. The fall season proved to be great from a development standpoint and we’re going to take a hard look at whether or not the traditional approach to the fall (i.e. head racing, team practices 6 days per week) is really the best thing for the development of a college racing team that aspires to peak over 2000m in June.

"We resumed all-team training on January 23rd – we got on the water once before the river froze but it was a fun outing! We’re now in the throes of some of the traditional winter training work that New England rowing teams know so well. We operate in two groups and all training and activity is “masks on all the time” with athletes appropriately spaced out with additional air-handling and air-cleaning measures in place. We’re incredibly proud of the team’s attitude and effort, and, we’re grateful for the opportunity we have to continue to build our culture and train at a high level. Our co-captains Rex Berger and Braeden Camp continue to demonstrate steady and inspiring leadership and the team is making measurable progress. We’re committed to doing everything we can to give our athletes, and in particular our great group of seniors, a meaningful rowing season this spring."

2017 Outlook - "A year ago I said in this forum that we still had a long way to go as a team, and that proved true. While we were coming off medal-winning performances at the Eastern Sprints in both the Varsity and 2nd Varsity 8+ events in 2015, we had also graduated a deep and strong senior class. There was an assumption that we’d be able to build off of that in 2016, however, the pieces weren’t really in place for that to happen, both athletically and culturally. I was proud of the team we had developed by the 2016 IRA, but it took all year to get to that point. The Men in the Arena knew that finishing 7th nationally was probably the best we could have done, and, was also a very respectable result for a Varsity 8+ comprised of 4 freshmen, 2 sophomores, 2 juniors, and 1 senior. When you aim for the IRA grand final and miss, winning the petite is not a foregone conclusion – it’s a hard race to win on a number of levels.

"2016-2017 has been an entirely different campaign, and perhaps a better indicator of where our program is heading. Our captains, Trevor Appier and Louis Copolov, have done an outstanding job of leading a cultural transformation within our team, and the entire squad has been eager to buy in. We’ve had good practices since day one of the year, we had great results team wide at the Foot of the Charles in November (winning both the 4+ and 8+ events) to cap off the fall season, and we’ve had a solid winter training period that has included more rowing on the water than we’ve ever done in January/February. We start our on-water selection period next week and racing starts on April 1st. Our dual slate is as challenging as any in the league. The heats at Sprints will be unbelievable as usual, as will the IRA semis. The team is excited to put three solid 8+’s in a position to finish as high as they possibly can at the Eastern Sprints and IRA National Championship."

2014 Outlook - "We are excited about the maturity, depth, strength and focus that the team has demonstrated through the winter training period; it will be interesting to see how the athletes sort themselves out when we return to the water. Our regular season and championship racing schedules are incredibly competitive. We are fortunate in that we have more experienced athletes than we've had in many years, and, a healthy balance of ability across 4 classes. I know the entire squad is looking forward to getting back on the water and racing."
