WORCESTER, Mass -- Four Maritime crews scored great results in their second competition of the fall season on the venerable rowing site, Lake Quinsigamond in Worcester. It was a great day of racing despite the raw weather brought on by this weekend's Nor'easter. Rowers fought off cold, damp conditions and a steady 11 mph headwind on the course.

The Buccaneer women showed tremendous strength, conditioning and grit to finish their race in 11^th place - just a minute and four seconds behind top DIII powerhouse, Connecticut College, who finished 9^th.  

The two varsity men's fours had equally positive results, taking the 12^th and 15^th slots in their event, which included DI programs Vermont & New Hampshire, as well as DIII rowing powerhouses Amherst, Connecticut, Middlebury and Williams.

Closing out the day, our novice men's 8+ rowed their first competition as Buccaneers, earning a 5^th place finish.
