PBC men fall in line for head race season

September 24, 2011 by admin · Leave a Comment 

Yep. Fall is here. After an insanely successful summer, PBC’s Men’s Sweep Team is gearing up for this weekend’s Scullers Head of the Potomac (SHOP), as well as another successful head race season. This may be the best fall for the men in a long time … but they usually do pretty well, right, PBC?!

Below are a few photos taken during yesterday’s deary, drizzly morning practice.  Apologies for the fuzzy ones (photos, that is). We weren’t expecting it to be so dark for so long already!

See you at the SHOP on Sunday!

Potomac’s Results for Diamond States 2010

July 25, 2010 by admin · Comments Off 

The record setting temps gave an all new meaning to the heat medals awarded today at the Howard B. Smith Diamond State Regatta (aka “Diamond States”) held on Noxontown Pond in Delaware.

Below are the results we found on Ronin earlier in the day.*  (Wha …? Interference with Lane 4?! Pfffbt.)

To see all the results, click here.

* Events 38 and higher were canceled due to unsafe conditions (read: the storm, not the temps).

      PBC Men go for a cuptastic Henley 2010

      June 24, 2010 by admin · Comments Off 

      Henley 2007

      A few of the guys from PBC's 2007 Henley Men's Club 8+ above return to the 2010 crew to make another run at it.

      From June 30 to July 4, Potomac Boat Club Men’s Sweep Team will compete for the Thames Challenge Cup, the prize awarded to the winner of the Men’s Club Eight event at the prestigious Henley Royal Regatta.

      The regatta, first held in 1839, takes place annually on the River Thames near the town of Henley-on-Thames, England. More than 500 crews from 20 nations will compete this year, including our own.

      PBC men last competed at Henley in 2007. They were the only U.S. crew to make it to the Thames Challenge Cup quarterfinals. A few of the guys from 2007 are returning this year and hope to better their result. We think they will.

      The 2010 crew includes Apollo Nguyen (cox), Chad Jungbluth, Paul Holland, John Forrest, Mike McCarthy, Bob Price (PBC President), Brian Wood, Nick Davies, and Tom Brock.

      PBC's 2010 Henley team prepares last month at home

      Each event at Henley is a single-elimination competition; in other words, you could be one and done, or get to play all week.  Boats race two at a time down a 2,112 meter-long course so narrow, there are only a few meters to spare when side-by-side. Adding to the potential drama (and undoubtedly, the regatta”s popularity with spectators), the course is lined by floating, unforgiving wooden bars or booms. Steering into the boom is known by onlookers as a “Henley Royal F[oul]-up,” and offending coxswains must wear crowns emblazoned with the same for the remainder of the regatta. (Just kidding about that last part. Maybe.)

      On Saturday, June 26th, if all the guys make it into town on time, PBC will tune up and shake off the jet lag at the Reading Town Regatta.  Once racing starts at Henley, you can follow the guys as they battle through the competition by signing up for Twitter, Facebook or any of the other Henley results services offered at http://hrr.co.uk/pdisp.php?pid=316.  In the meantime, below we’ve included an alphabetical list of the clubs PBC will have to beat to advance, followed by a list of past PBC winners at Henley.

      Safe travels and best of luck to Apollo and our crew. Row hard, guys!

      Road trip … MatNats in Camden!

      August 6, 2009 by admin · Comments Off 

      With most folks headed down to the Carolina beaches this time of year, why not head up the road instead?  Next weekend, a short 2-3 hour drive north on 95 will land you smack dab in the middle of some hot race action in always-lovely … Camden, New Jersey!

      From August 13-16, PBC’s Masters rowers will join almost 1800 others out on the Cooper River for Masters National Championships 2009.  We’re pretty confident our folks will be leading the pack in more than a few events, so go cheer them on!

      To find out who will be wearing the white star, and in which of 200 events, visit the PBC Masters Nationals lineups page on Regatta Central here.

      We even put together a little map for you and directions to the venue. We wouldn’t want you to end up in Philly.
