Sounds like TBC is more competitive but there's also the Capital Rowing Club juniors program. https://www.capitalrowing.org/crcwp/join/special-programs/juniors/

TBC is the much more competitive program, with ODBC's only real advantage being that it is located in Alexandria, not Georgetown, which is an easier commute for most families

I have to agree with this. GDS's academics may be on par with STA and NCS, but they are a long way's off from being considered among these scholastic rowing national powerhouses.

GDS can't be described as a powerhouse, but is definitely an up and coming team. It is a great school, and team alumni have gone on to row at the Ivys.

Trying to compare the two programs for their fall competitive crew. Any helpful insight would be appreciated.
