[quote=Anonymous]I would be very surprised if someone were recruited for crew. Crew is run as a club sport at most area schools meaning that it is a run by an independent parent board which has no say or control in the school admissions process. It is possible a coach may meet rowers through summer and fall programs and encourage that rower and family to look at a school but has no say in any admissions process. It is also possible that general athleticism is a factor in admitted a high school student who then gravitates towards crew. In the case of NCS, most of those rowers have been at the school since lower school or even in Cathedral schools since PK. They were not recruited into the system. That is actually one of the nice aspects of the sport - kids can discover it fairly late in life i.e. high school and still be big contributors as opposed to many field sports where skills are developed over a long period of time.[/quote]
