One of the nice things about racing earlier is we get to see what we have. We can really identify what boats will be most competitive. Grand Valley State is a good program and that race will help us identify some of our weaknesses in March and still have eight weeks to make corrections before the Regional Championships.

You are racing your competitors, not the clock.

It's a different thing whether to keep going to races, but I've always loved racing.

The weather this winter was favorable and the racing offered solid, competitive fields vying for the best purse structure on the East Coast. We hope to continue this positive momentum when racing shifts to Belmont Park next month.
