Favorite Regatta/Regatta Site: Speakmon Regatta

Words of Wisdom: Having the right support system can be the difference between a good experience and a great one. Surround yourself with the people you want to be like, the people who will stand up for you even when you’re not there, and the people who want to see you succeed. UCRC has positively impacted my life in so many ways, but the way I’ll always be the most grateful for will be for introducing me to my best friend, who helped push me to be the best athlete and person I could be.

Molly has served the last 3 years as our Equipment Chair. Molly finishes with 2 records on our Top-10 All-Time Erg Leaderboards for Women’s Novice 2k and Open 6k. She is a 2-time Regional Champion and 2-time National Finalist. She has a final academic year at UC where we wish her the best in her next steps but will miss her dearly.

•Name: Taegan Phelps
•Degree(s) Pursued: B.S. in Industrial Design
•Years on UCRC: 4
•Favorite Regatta/Regatta Site: Head of the H***h
•Most Memorable Erg Workout: Dirty Dozens
•Favorite Erg Song: Believer by imagine dragons
•Words of Wisdom: If you were to do it again, but do it differently, it was still probably worth it in the first place.

“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of any kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking in anything.” -James 1:2-4

Taegan has fully graduated from UC and has taken a role as a Production Designer at Packing Corporation of America. She hails from where she rowed in high school as well as over breaks and co-op semesters. She is a regional champion, a national finalist, has served on the executive board and despite injury, dedicated her final semester to coxing the next generation of novices — winning her final race as a Bearcat (victory toss pictured slide 5). She has also been a staple photographer for the program in between her races and we will miss her very much, though wish her the best in this new chapter of her life.

•Favorite Regatta/Regatta Site: Speakmon regatta was always my favorite!
•Most Memorable Erg Workout: I loved dirty dozens or any circuit

•Words of Wisdom: My tidbit would be to learn as much as you can from those around you. Work hard, soak in the little moments, and every time you want to give up, think about how amazing it is that you get to wake up every morning and pour your soul into something you love.
