CHS Rowing raced this past weekend at the 61st Head of the Charles Regatta, the largest three-day regatta in the world.

Nearly 12,000 athletes ranging from high school, collegiate, master and national team crews competed over the course of the weekend on the Charles River in Boston.

In Sunday's Youth Eight race, which saw both club and scholastic crews compete, CHS finished 24th out of 85 crews behind Von Kramer '27, Brodie Vitko '27, Linden Serbinowski '27, Rylan Siuta '29, Collin Harper '28, Elliott Embow '28, Hagen Leuthe '28, Stas Ryskin '27 and coxswain Joseph Castiglione '27.

Canisius was ninth among scholastic crews in the event, which was won by St. Paul's School of London.

Canisius has improved each year in this event, finishing 47th in 2021, followed by finishes of 46th, 34th, and 26th before this weekend's 24th.

"We have a lesser experienced racing group this year, so to post a higher finish than last year is positive," said coach Jacob Filby '14. "I am eager to see how they develop over the final weeks of the fall season before we progress into our winter conditioning."

During Saturday's racing at the Head of the Charles, coxswain Filby and the crew from Connecticut's Island Racing Team won the Women's Senior-Master Four for the second year in a row.
The entire CHS Rowing team will head to Philadelphia this weekend to finish their fall season at the 56th Head of the Schuylkill Regatta.
