Six members of the Hobart rowing team were named to the inaugural ECAC/National Invitational Rowing Championships Stewards’ All Academic Team. To be honored, a student-athlete must have reached sophomore academic standing and be a varsity letter winner with a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.35.

The following Statesmen earned a spot on the team:

Sophomore Michael Copacino, history and religious studies double major
Junior Owen Henn, sociology and public policy studies double major
Junior Gerry Samson, philosophy and psychology double major
Junior Bob Taylor, biology major
Junior Jack Trimble, economics and environmental studies double major
Sophomore John Wasmund, undeclared

Hobart advanced all four of its entries to the grand finals at the ECAC/NIRC, posting two fourth place finishes and two fifth place finishes. As a team, the Statesmen finished third in the points standings behind Division I Michigan and Trinity (Conn.).

The ECAC/NIRC was the final event of the season for Hobart. The Statesmen won their fifth consecutive Liberty League Championship and claimed a gold and two silver medals at the New York State Championships this season.
