The Everett Rowing Association varsity men’s 8+ team is on a roll.
The Everett boat captured its second straight major event as it won the Junior Men’s Varsity 8+ division at the Husky Open on Saturday on the Montlake Cut in Seattle.
Everett completed the two-kilometer course in a time of 6 minutes, 9.186 seconds. That was more than two seconds faster than Mount Baker Crew, which finished second.
This came one week after the same boat won its division at the Empire Sprints in Perris, California. Competing against teams from across California, Arizona and Nevada, Everett won in a time of 6:02.1, besting second-place San Diego by five seconds.
The team consists of Aidan Richer (cox), Ethan Senn, William Sweeney, Dylan Stengel, Ethan Miedema, Owen Moody, Andrew McCartney, Eli Hellman and Justin DeHart.
Everett had two other boats win their races at the Husky Open, those being the Junior Women’s 4+ and the Junior Men’s JV 8+.
