2x State Champs and Bronze for the Treasure Coast Juniors
The Treasure Coast Juniors competed this past weekend at the Florida State Sweep Championships in Sarasota. The two day regatta hosted 42 clubs from around the state. Last year the Juniors Freshman Girls 4+ became the first crew to ever win a State Championship for the club.
This year the Men’s Freshman 4+ became the first men’s crew to get a state medal for the club, coming in 3rd. These young men had to battle for this medal as the field was deep and the crews didn’t give this up easily.
As the day progressed, the Men’s Varsity 2- came across the line first in one of the closest finishes imaginable. Treasure Coast battled Stewards Foundation until the very end of the 1500 meter course, winning GOLD by 0.010 seconds!
The club has been working hard over the past years to develop the 8+’s on the girls side of the team, with the rowers averaging 9 rowing sessions per week preparing for this weekend in hopes to finally win the State Championship. In an impressive final, the Women’s Junior 8+ came out swinging with boats stacked until the 500 meter mark. But in the end it was Treasure Coast who pressed out in front and in the end finished with an open water lead on Capital City to win GOLD.

Juniors 3rd in State for Junior and Freshman Girls 2x
This past weekend the Treasure Coast Junior Rowing Team competed at the FSRA Sculling State Championships in Sarasota, FL at the world renown Nathan Benderson Park which hosted the World Rowing Championships last September.
Traditionally this regatta is two days in duration, but with inclement weather threatening the Finals on Sunday, the decision was made to shorten the format to one day, giving the athletes only one chance in the heats to make it to finals.
8 out of the 9 crews made it out of heats that morning into the finals later on in the day on Saturday. The Girls Junior 2x (double) and the Girls Freshman 2x smoked the competition coming in 3rd winning the Bronze medals. The Girls Junior 2x was stroked by Baylee Slone, a 10th grade student at Martin County High School and was bowed by Samantha Tolton an 11th grade student at South Fork High School. The Freshman 2x was stroked by Liz Rightler and bowed by Brooke Bulten, who both attend Martin County High School.
The team is now set to compete at the FSRA Sweep State Championships on April 28 and 29 back at Nathan Benderson Park.

Treasure Coast Junior Rowing Team, 10x SE District Champions!
It was a beautiful and warm day at Canal 54 and Sebastian River’s Boathouse in Fellsmere this past Saturday, April 7. All rowers have been preparing for months for this day, the chance to be the fastest on the water against our fellow district crews.
With a South cross wind against the banks of the canal, the crews raced fiercely and brought home 10 1st Place finishes!
Next weekend at the FSRA Sculling States Championships in Sarasota, the Sculling lineups will go head-to-head against all the crews in the State.
