Men's Crew and "Pull For a Cure" Featured in Rowing News
October 23, 2009Last weekend at the prestigious Head of the Charles, the Brown crew went head-to-head with some of the top competition from around the world and more than held their own, finishing fifth overall. However, they may have achieved an even more significant victory off the water, as the team raised over $20,000 in less than a month to benefit breast cancer research.
