Amaris Hinton: Baltimore Community Rowing Alumna talks High School and Collegiate Rowing
Manage episode 263514980 series 2693668
#011 - Amaris Hinton is unlike many rowers, regardless of age or race. She talks about her 9-year rowing career starting as a 5’ 8” sixth grader at the Reach High program of Baltimore Community Rowing, which led to an elite rowing career on the 2015 U.S. Rowing Junior National Team, 2015-2016 Youth National Championships, and 2016 Henley Women’s Regatta. Now, she's a sophomore at Rutgers University rowing on the Women's Crew Team. What's unique about her experience is that she goes from a mostly black high school rowing team to a mostly white collegiate rowing team. Regardless, her experiences and accomplishments say that neither age nor race are an obstacle for achieving greatness in rowing.
We hope that the conversation in this podcast helps us all in the rowing world -- no matter your race -- to unify the rowing sport through diversity.
