SRA Takes Five Medals, Three Gold

By Staff Report | Sports

SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Saratoga Rowing Association took home three gold medals, and five overall, this past weekend in St. Catharine’s, Ontario at the Candadian Secondary School Rowing Association.

Weather caused many of the heats to be shortened and semifinals and finals to be canceled, but the SRA made their times count. 

The SRA women’s eight of Caroline Murphy, Claire Murphy, Kerri Wegner, Kelli Wegner, Shannon Merboth, Alexis Georgia, Meghan Hampton, MacKenzie Battle and MacKenzie Hart took gold in the 2,000-meter (6:36.9).

The junior womens eight team of Sydney Carolo, Margaret Gregory, Olivia Richards, Alessandra Smith, Brooke Travis, Amanda Pendergrass, Abbie Albright, Martina Grant and Tara Eaton raced to gold with a time of 3:13.99 in the 1,000-meter.

After a fastest overall time, the SRA senior women’s quad, the Murphy’s and Wegners, finished with a weather–shortned 1,000-meter time of 3:30.04, earning another gold.

The junior mens quad (Christian Cianfarani, Sean Holmes, Connor Kenison Maxwell Lynch) finished the 1,000-meter with a time of 3:07.70 and a silver medal.

A bronze medal was garnered by the senior womens four (Shannon Merboth, Alexis Georgia, Meghan Hampton, MacKenzie Battle, Tara Eaton) after a time of 7:23.45.

Also, the Ballston Spa senior mens quad (Ryan Gasparini, Anthony Ruscio, Lucas Dowling, Alex Hastings) finished third overall with a heat time of 3:05.45.
