Oct. 1: The St. Lawrence men’s and women’s crew teams have welcomed Tracey Tallman to their coaching staff for the 2007-2008 season.

The Saratoga Springs, NY native was undefeated her freshman year and competed in the Big Ten Championships for the first novice 8. Because of her efforts, she was voted novice MVP at the end of her freshman campaign.

 

As a junior, Tallman won Minnesota’s first varsity gold medal at the Big Ten championships in the first varsity four. In her final year as a Gopher, the team won the Big Ten Championships, and Tallman was a member of the second varsity four that won gold. She participated in NCAAs in 2007, where the University of Minnesota placed sixth overall.

 

At Saratoga Springs High School, Tallman earned a varsity letter for rowing. She also competed in the Saratoga Rowing Association for three years.

 

The crew team will travel to Rochester, NY next weekend to compete in their first race of the season at the Head of the Genesee on Sunday, October 7th.
