All-American Athletes

 |
Four University of Colorado crew athletes were given regional all-american honors at ACRA club nationals: Rane Shaub and Tyler DeWitt of the men's team and Sara Gawick and Theo Spinelli of the women's team. Ten of our rowers were given academic all-american honors for having a cumulative GPA above 3.5. Above all, Gawick was named first team overall and Spinelli was named third team overall. This means that Sara Gawick, University of Colorado rower, is one of the top eight rowers in the United States!

About Colorado Crew
Thank you for stopping by the University of Colorado Crew's website. We have established ourselves as one of the largest club sports at the University and continually attract some of the best student athletes. We are looking for individuals that desire competition, a strong team dynamic, rigorous training and fun. We train hard, play harder and compete against some of the best programs in the country. We are proud to represent the University of Colorado together in a sport that is internationally recognized and supported.
Rowing is defined by hard work, dedication, and teamwork. From the first muscle used at practice until the time we collapse into bed, the goal at Colorado Crew is to achieve excellence. Whether that be on the water, in the classroom, or in our personal lives, rowers are likely to succeed and excel. The commitment and dedication required to be a successful student-athlete gives each member skills he or she will use to succeed. Not many can do what we do.
Colorado Crew began in the fall of 1992 when two transfer students from the University of San Diego wanted to row for a school that had no rowing team. Over the years the team has grown larger and larger, won more and more regattas, and has become more and more prestigous at the national level. The past several years have seen some of the fastest boats in team history, with top-5 places at national-level regattas such as the head of the Charles and the Western IRA Championships. Today we have a relatively young team with loads of talent and a lot of potential, and in the next few years the nation will need to watch out for the Kleve, the Dow, or any other boat carrying eight University of Colorado rowers.
