Simmons Crew
Other Information
With the banks of the Charles River less than a mile from the College, Simmons women have enjoyed the city's rich tradition of competitive rowing since 1978. Experienced rowers compete at the varsity level, while newcomers to the sport can learn the rudiments of rowing on the novice team. The Sharks race during the fall and spring semesters - practicing out of the Riverside boathouse during the warmer months and at the William J. Holmes Sports Center in the winter using Simmons' indoor rowing tanks.
Each October the team competes with rowers from around the globe in the Head of the Charles Regatta, the largest two-day regatta in the world, held right here in Boston.
