Women in Rowing - Special Presentation by Tara Morgan by Rebecca Caroe

Producer Charlotte Pierce talks with two-time Olympian, two-time World Medalist and two-time CRASH-B World Record holder, Director Grudt is one of only a handful of athletes in the world from her era to medal internationally in both sculling and sweep events. She turned her successful rowing career into an equally successful coaching career. Barb was the Varsity Coach for 9 years at Dartmouth College and 9 years at alma mater University of Pennsylvania and is now the Director of Rowing and Girls' Rowing Coach at Peddie School. On the international scene, Barb coached for six years at the national team level, four with the U.S. Junior Women's National Team and two with U.S. Under 23 crews. Her wide range of experience and success across all disciplines in rowing and all levels of competition make her uniquely qualified to guide the development of young athletes. Her goal is to help camp participants improve their skills and build the confidence necessary to pursue their own successful rowing careers.

If you find yourself alone in your single, helping out a learn-to-row boat, or maybe just not getting enough verbal feedback from the coach, correspondent Alison Pollini presents a few basic tips to help you “self-coach” your way through the silence.

Plus: In Part #3 of our preview of the Dec. 5-8 US Rowing Convention, we interview Jules Zane, director of referee & membership programs at US Rowing!
