PARENT'S INFORMATION

Dear Crew Parents,

As the Head Coach of the Butler University Crew Team, it is my distinct privilege to be able to work with your son or daughter.  As the year progresses, I believe you will see your student grow in ways they never imagined both on and off the water.  While your student will be pushed athletically, rowing will help develop cornerstone traits like dedication, discipline and commitment.  In short, you should be thrilled that your son or daughter has made the decision to join our team.

Collegiate rowing is a huge commitment.  It is my hope that you appreciate and support what participating in this sport means.  Our team literally trains throughout the entire school year.  Whether it be the three mile races against the clock in the fall, winter training on the indoor rowing machines, or the side by side sprint races in the spring, our student-athletes continually display time management skills that allow them to balance rowing with the academic and extracurricular demands of college life.

If you ever have questions about our sport, or would like to ride along with me during practice, please do not hesitate to call.  Again, it is a privilege to have the opportunity to work with your son or daughter, and I hope to see you at one of our upcoming competitions.

GO BULLDOGS!
