✨SENIOR SPOTLIGHT✨
Next, we’d like to recognize Ashby Deitz! Ashby is majoring in Computer Science and has had a huge leadership role within the team during his three years with us, serving as the Vice President from 2024-2025 and an honorary officer/team captain this year as well!
Ashby might be the literal definition of a team player. He’ll row or cox any boat without complaints and excels from any seat (this year he’ll be rowing the Men’s 2- at ACRA nationals, but just last year, he coxed the novice women’s 4+!) On top of that, Ashby brings this team together and makes everyone—from the newest novices to the oldest of veterans—feel welcome. No matter how early practice is, how difficult the workout is, or how disorganized race-day might be, Ashby maintains composure and shows up with a positive attitude. Additionally, as an experienced rower and seasoned leader, Ashby somehow has the answer to every problem that arises within the team, even if it just as simple as a cookie👀).
To our favorite passenger princess, George Ashley Deitz the Third—Thank you for your passion, leadership, and dedication to this team. We’ll miss your goofy laugh and team spirit and we wish you the best with whatever comes next! 💚
