Hello All,

The SPRINT to the banquet continues with another great contribution from Jack Schumacher of $1000.

For today’s update Mike Cook wanted to pass along a motivational allegory:

Stroke, Mike Cook, heard a groan from the entire Cal boat as their bow caught a crab. Wanting to take advantage of this rookie mistake, Mike told the coxswain to let everyone know he is taking the stroke rate up over the next 4 strokes. Mike’s 4 strokes pushes USC ahead at a critical time in the race to put USC up by a seat.
Now Mike is looking for fellow oarsmen from 1975 – 1978 to join in the effort and help pull the crew to victory.

Dwayne Bates              John Kirk                   Bob Haas                       Chris Hall
Mazin Hakouz             John Pollack              Charles Talbert            Dan Stanton

Coxswains:                   Keith Ogata                  Edith Chow                  Mark Blaine

He is also looking to the Freshman crew he once coached to many victories in 1979-80. Tom Tonelli (cox), Eric Noll, Brooke Heath, Mark Garvin, Richard Wanderer, George the Greek,  and others. If you have the contact information for any of these former oarsmen, please get them involved in our SPRINT to the banquet.

Help us get to the finish. You can do it!

FIGHT ON!
