What are parting words of advice for the returning Varsity team?
Cobb - Row for Clemson, Row for your teammates, row for YOU. This team
is unique and you have been given a wonderful opportunity to be portofit, so
make every moment count.
Grant - Look at every practice as an opportunity to improve on the ergs,
feel the rhythm in the boat and enjoy it!
Sully - When out in a double, check for other boats more often than you
think you need to!
Corey - Don't take anything for granted.....enjoy the team,
workouts, etc...because you never know what will happen!
Sally - Don't stop giving it your best or setting your goals high.
I truly believe it is better to give it everything and fall short of a goal
than to never test the boundaries because in truth you have won because you
tried.
Lizzie - Figure out why you row--it will make your time more enjoyable.
Carrie - If you're not where you want to be-it's the time
now to make changes and get your mind there first you determine where you're
getting out of it. Get to know your class- they may be nothing like you, but
they may be some of the greatest people you encounter throughout your life.
What are words of advice for the entering class of recruited freshman?
Cobb - The sky is the limit. You are bringing in a new era, so you make
the rules, you raise the bar.
Grant - You may always be hungry but you don't really need all that
food! Come prepared to work hard, learn a lot about life and yourself and build
camaraderie with your teammates.
Sully - Do summer workouts!
Corey - Give it your all; enjoy yourself; work hard for the good of the
team and practice selflessness.
Sally - Don't be fooled into believing that an easy life is a good
one or that the "normal" life is the right one. Don't expect
things to run a certain way because you will be disappointed, rejoice in each
day, take things as they come and you will find things are better than you had
planned. ?
Lizzie - Make everyday count. It will be over before you know it!
Carrie - This is an amazing opportunity you've been given, but it's
your choice to make whatever you want out of it.

song!
Sully - Hard to pick one: Rivanna Romp last year my boat walked through
a boat right as we passed the crowd-it was cool! This year was a great race
against UCF and a lot of fun too! I have a lot of good memories from past 2
years.
Corey - Novice sprint in Texas - Spring 2002.
Sally - I would have to say putting our "senior vidwo" together.
It brought everything together.

success as I have with that one.
Word Association: first thought that comes to your mind.....
Orange - County Choppers, fruit, sherbert, Clemson, Clemson, Clemson,
Solid.

Death Valley - football, Big, turftailgating, football and friends, turf,
football season = fun times, football.
Nature Valley - granola, granola bar, ugh, gross (ate too many novice
year), emergency snack, gagh, trailor food.

my alarm clock and checking it again and again, not that early anymore, practice.
Spring break - never, skits and songs, camp rowing, skits, beach, row,
row, row.
Boathouse hill - yuck, uh...., awful workout-never again!, torture
yet rewarding when finished, pavement, how many?, torture.
Boathouse music - not my type, repetitious, fired up mix, Heaven is a
place on ergs, "we will rock you" on the loud speakers, next, next,
next, repetitious.
10 k - too long, just 45 minutes, Never again!, Rather do this than a 2k, eeehh,
a looong steady run, erg test
President Barker - biggest fan, cool, skiing, committed, White house with a
green lawn, amazing man that's not too bad looking for his age either,
