Ridgewood Crew had nine boats row to medals at the April 26 Garden State Scholastic Championships, including seven gold-medal winners in the event held on the Cooper River in Camden.
The Garden State regatta features 1,500-meter sprint races and is the New Jersey qualifier for the Scholastic Rowing Association of America (SRAA) Championships later this month.
Under the direction of head coach Boris Roque Alvarez, Ridgewood finished strong in almost every category, placing in early heats and successfully advancing to the finals.
Ridgewood Crew is an independent, privately-funded club not affiliated with Ridgewood High School, though its 70-rower roster is comprised almost entirely of RHS students. The club, now in its 11th season of operation, is structured similar to that of most high school-sanctioned sports in that it is split up into varsity, junior varsity and novice levels.
