Conditions: A variable cross/crosstail persisted all weekend. Water varied from nearly flat to slight whitecaps.

Notes: The Knecht Cup was a great race for our team. The level of competition there is, is about as tough as it gets with some of the top women's NCAA teams and some Eastern Sprint level teams testing their speed.

All of our teams were competitive but the highlight was definitely the Women's Novice 4+. We had hoped that one of our crews would be competitive and progress from the heats but when they went out and won their heat by beating Indiana's NCAA women and rowed to the forth fastest qualifying time we knew they could do well. The semi draw was a good one for us and the girls went out and won it by open water. With the forth fastest semi time we knew the Grand Final would be at real fight as John Hopkins was fourteen seconds faster than us when comparing times. The final turned into a two boat race with John Hopkins and Wichita State distancing themselves from the pack during the first thousand meters of the race. Both crews stayed virtually even with each team trading the lead back and forth by a few feet. Unfortunately, John Hopkins had a sprint the last hundred meters that our girls just could not match and they moved away to win by four seconds. While it was heart wrenching to watch Hopkins move away it was still a great time to be a Shocker as we were able to watch the rest of the pack fight it out for third thru sixth place.
