SU Men's Winter Training

Coach Reischman continues to scour the globe for the ideal winter training venue. His criteria: the best rowing water along with the fewest team distractions. For 2010, he has outdone himself.

WELCOME TO LOUISIANA!

Yes, from January 9 - 17, the SU Men will enjoy the comforts of the bunkhouses at the Bayou Segnette State Park in balmy Louisiana where they will row distraction-free with the promise of returning to SU lightning-fast!
TripAdvisor gave the park 3.5 stars and listed the attractions as "viewing wildlife". Hmmm....
