2015 HEAVYWEIGHT ROWING

Navy Heavyweight Rowing History One of the oldest sports at the Naval Academy, the crew program began over 135 years ago when intramural crews raced in craft similar to whale boats. A gale carried the Navy boathouse and equipment away in 1877 and it wasn’t until 1892 that the sport resurfaced at the Academy under the leadership of future noted American author Winston Churchill. In 1893, Navy purchased its first eight-oared shell from contributions made by the Brigade of Midshipmen. A year later, a new boathouse was built and two new eights added. Navy began to row against outside competition again in 1897, beating Pennsylvania in a three-length victory over a three-mile course. The crews were given a new boathouse at the mouth of Dorsey Creek in 1899 at a site not far from the present Navy rowing facilities. For the next two decades, there was a buildup of intercollegiate competition that was broken by World War I. In 1907, Navy made its first appearance in the Poughkeepsie Regatta, today’s IRA, finishing third. For five years around the turn of the century, Navy had a new coach each year, including the well-known Jim Ten Eyck. Finally in 1904, some stability was infused when Richard A. Glendon took over and laid the groundwork for Navy’s winning heritage. When World War I ended in 1919, Glendon had more men out for the sport than he could seat in shells. Thus, he was able to come up with his strongest eight, recording an undefeated season. A year later, Navy lost only to Syracuse but rebounded to defeat the Orangemen in the National Regatta in Worcester, Mass., thus earning the right to represent the United States in the 1920 Olympics in Belgium. Navy rowed to the Olympic Gold Medal by driving past Great Britain in the final 500 meters. The Midshipmen who rowed in the boat were the toast of the Brigade and in 1921 and ‘22, Navy won the Poughkeepsie Regatta. A year later, young Dick Glendon took over for his father as Navy crew coach and the Midshipmen responded with an undefeated season, but were second at Poughkeepsie to a Western crew, Washington. The younger Glendon directed Navy to another unbeaten season in 1925 and its third varsity championship in five years at Poughkeepsie. After the season, he departed for Columbia. Navy crews for the next several years were thwarted in their endeavors, just missing wins in several key races, but winning at Poughkeepsie in 1931. In 1932, Buck Walsh stepped in as head coach and the Midshipmen once more were among the eastern powers, winning the IRA in 1938. The war years of the 1940s were lean for Navy crew and saw several opponents drop the sport and the cancellation of the Poughkeepsie Regatta for four years. There was one spark when in 1947, the Mids were the Poughkeepsie winners. In 1950, Walsh passed away, and the reins of Navy’s crew program being handed to his close coaching associate, Russell “Rusty” Callow.
I
Callow became a popular figure at the Academy. After winning only one race in 1951, his varsity crew went unbeaten in 1952, ‘53 and ‘54. The 1952 eight was the U.S. Olympic crew and went on to claim a gold medal in Helsinki, Finland. During those three seasons, the Navy crews won 23 consecutive collegiate races (29 races overall) and three-straight lRA Varsity Eight Championships. In 1960, Callow was succeeded by Louis Lindsay. His crew that year finished second at the IRA, but a week later reversed its placing and beat California to win the Olympic Trials and the right for a Naval Academy eight to once again represent the United States in the Olympics. Navy and the University of California are the only two rowing organizations to have been the U. S. eight-oared representative three times in the Olympic Games. In the 1960s, Navy continued to vie for national honors under Paul Quinn, who had taken over from Lindsay. The Mids won the Eastern Sprints in 1961 and the Varsity Challenge Cup at the IRAs in 1965. In 1969, Carl Ullrich became the mentor at The Boathouse. The man who later would become Assistant Director of Athletics at Navy, Director of Athletics at Army and Executive Director of the Patriot League, guided the Midshipmen to the Eastern Sprints title in 1971. In 1974, one of Ullrich’s former plebe coaches, Rick Clothier, returned to the Academy as head coach. During Clothier’s tenure as head coach of the Midshipmen, he achieved a career mark of 216-101-2 (.680), competing against some of the best teams in collegiate rowing. His overall record in over 40 years as a Division I head coach is 256-102-2 (.714), which includes five years at his alma mater, the University of Washington, prior to taking over the Navy program. Among his many coaching accomplishments, Clothier oversaw the program’s return to the Intercollegiate Rowing Association (IRA) National Championships in 1980 with an upset win in the Varsity Eight event. His crews went on to win seven Ten Eyck Trophies (overall team champions), three Varsity Challenge Cup titles (varsity national champions) and five Kennedy Trophy Cups (second varsity national champions). In 32 years at the IRA, Clothier’s Navy crews won 28 IRA championships. Additionally, he coached Navy to four consecutive gold medal wins at the prestigious Head of the Charles Regatta, the only collegiate crew to ever accomplish that goal. In addition, over 30 Navy oarsmen since 1980 have been members of United States national teams representing their school and country in world-wide competitions, including the Olympic and Pan American games. After 11 combined years as a successful head coach of the lightweight team and as an associate head coach with the heavyweights, Rob Friedrich was chosen to replace Clothier prior to the 2012-13 school year.
