Head of the Schuylkill

One of the country’s largest Fall rowing regattas is the Head of the Schuylkill. Over two days on the downtown river, 292 teams (schools, universities and clubs) with 2,375 boat entries continued a string of timed races.  
Bishop Ireton had 12 of those boat entries and performed against some of the best rowing programs in the country with much larger programs, but the Cardinals showed great grit and race times. Every one of our teams rowed and experienced this storied race!
