SU Women Win the Single and Pair

The Syracuse University women's rowing team posted first-place finishes in the single and pair at the inaugural Collegiate Small Boat Championship this weekend on Mercer Lake.

Senior Rebecca Soja won the single in 8:08.3 over Annaliese Ionson of Princeton (8:13.54). row2k.com included Soja in its recap of the race. Go to the story and scroll down to the "Single" sub-head.

Junior Sienna DeSantis and freshman Ailish Tinney won the B pair final in a time of 8:02.6. Penn finished second in 8:04.79, and Radcliffe finished third in 8:07.4.

Syracuse also recorded second place finishes in the A final of the pair and the B final of the single.

Syracuse is one of the founding members of the regatta, along with Radcliffe, Northeastern, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Virginia.  

Coach Justin Moore is excited about the influence this race will have on sculling within college rowing. “I just think sculling is such an incredible skill for all athletes,” Moore said. “It’s a great way to learn about boat moving."
