Lineup Changes for Orange Men Heading to Worcester

There have been some changes in the Orange crews, heading into this Sunday’s Eastern Sprints. SU has not raced since the tight loss to BU April 22 and Coach Dave Reischman has used the time to do some fine tuning.

Dan Berry is back in the Varsity Eight, in the bow seat, after spending some time in the JV. “He earned his seat back,” Reischman said. Dan joins twin brother, Vince who is now at three.

Mike Gennaro and Chris Lutz remain at stroke-seven, but Reischman has moved his oarsmen about in the middle of the boat. In addition to Vince Berry moving down to three, Dan Turner is now at four, as Mike Dietrick moves up to the five seat and Chris Bickford to six. Ken Marfilius is the stalwart at cox.

Tyler Toporowksi is now at seven in the JV, behind Aidan Barrett at stroke. “Tyler is doing a great job for us,” Reischman said.

Nemanja Bogdanovic is at six, Mason Leasure at five, Brendan Murphy at four, Matt Hopeck at three, Steve Connors at two and Nick Pickard in the bow. Isaac Budmen remains the JV coxswain.

Looking ahead to Sunday, and a heat that puts the #6 Orange Varsity in lane two between top-seeded Harvard and #7 Cornell, Reischman offered this – “It would be a mistake to get caught up in what color jersey is in the lane next to you.”

Last year Dartmouth came from the 12-seed to win the heat over Brown, leaving SU out of the Grand Final. This year, Reischman says the top twelve probably are even faster and more tightly bunched. For the record, Georgetown is the 12-seed this year.

The way to handle things, he said is “going as fast as you can twice down the course and hoping the chips fall your way.”
