Skyline Crew completed Senior Day at the Huron River Sprints, the team's second home invitational of the season. Strong performances across the board saw the women's team capture the points trophy ahead of crosstown rival Pioneer. The men were up against it in the form of perennial state powerhouse Orchard Lake St. Mary's and fought well to maintain very competitive performances. In the combined points trophy, Skyline took second behind Pioneer by the narrowest of margins. The team's final race before the midwest regional qualifiers for nationals will be at Orchard Lake St. Mary's. On Senior Day, the team honors its departing seniors by walking them through the procession of oars onto the dock, where they receive a rose (photo at right). Looking for an Easy Fundraising Option?
