I rowed for Mel-High my junior and senior year. Really helped shape my life and I made some really great friends, as well as great memories.  Mel-Hi helped me move into college rowing and was a big part of my life. I am now joining the navy and actually shipping out June 6 2011!

Melbourne, Fl - Some of the best times of my life were on the crew team. It's to bad I stopped rowing because now I'm really out of shape. :p Glad to see the new classes are keeping the good effort up.

Melbourne, FL -  I graduated in 1980, but rowed in my junior year. A member of the first girl's crew team, the second year of the program. What we wouldn't have done to have all those lovely boats to race in. The "Doc", our only boat, weighed 600 pounds and our coach, Dan Bartlett, made us girls carry it down to the water. "You row it. You carry it." :)

I went to Mel High from 2006-2007 and met some of my best friends during that year. I am currently finishing up at Southern Methodist University's Cox School of Business with a major in Business Management and a Minor in Finance. I work for a financial advisor and own my own photography business. I was recruited for rowing while at Mel High and signed with SMU in 2006. I have many great memories of rowing and the people of Mel High Crew and am so fortunate to have been on the team!

I had a great time being part of this team and it was a lot of fun being able to watch freshman evolve into decent rowers. I hope that I have left an impact on this team so that the upcoming rowers can attempt to greater accomplishments

I rowed for Mel-High Crew for my four years of high school. It was the best experience of my life and it shaped me to be the person I am today.  I made many lifelong friends and memories through rowing. Now I am at UCF and rowing for them in the spring! I will always keep in contract with Mel –High Crew and rowing will always be in my life. My favorite memories from MHS Crew was racing in the double(2X) with my twin, Katy Smithson
