New Novice Women Coach!

After almost 3 years of coaching, Anna Dmitriev will be unable to return this semester. Luckily, we have another alumn to help us out and bring success to the Novice Women. Greg Reynolds '08 returns to Binghamton Crew as Novice Women's coach. Greg rowed for Binghamton from 2005-2008 as a heavyweight. Since graduating, he has applied his rowing expertise to coaching. Good luck, Coach Greg!

Rest in Peace, ND Chen

ND "Andy" Chen was one of the founding members of Binghamton Crew.

According to fellow teammate and alumn Malcolm Faulds '92, "he was THE main organizer in the earliest days of the crew. He had boundless energy, some crazy ideas, and infectious enthusiasm. I'll never forget the sales pitch he gave us in the fall of '88 in the West Lounge of the Student Union. Even though there was no boat, no dock, no land on which to place a dock, or anything else really, he talked about the team as if it were a fait accomplis. He had us running up Bunn Hill on winter training runs even though we had no water training or competitions in sight. With no background in rowing or any real justification for doing it, he introduced himself to Rogi, the coach of Cascadilla boat club in Ithaca, and sweet-talked him into basically giving us a wooden eight. I still have one of the original wooden oars from that boat. He also convinced Ward Michael Wilson to give us money for 2 ergs. We had those before we had the boat. The guy was amazing."
