A Passion for the Machine: At The Thousand's Kevin Leslie
Q: How do you approach erg testing and long-distance pieces with At The Thousand?
The approach centers on treating tests as workouts within a framework of base fitness, prep workouts, and execution, using rate structures and pacing zones to manage effort and ensure the second half is maximized.
A Passion for the Machine: At The Thousand's Kevin Leslie
Q: Where did you get introduced to rowing?
Kevin describes starting at St. Joseph's University as a walk-on after trying multiple sports in high school, discovering rowing during a campus visit, and eventually building a long coaching career.
PCR Alumni Panel
Q: How do scholarships differ across divisions and what should students know?
D1 programs generally offer more athletic scholarships, D3 often offers academic or need-based aid, and D2 sits in between; students should consider their financial needs, required scores, and whether they can balance an athletic scholarship with academics.
PCR Alumni Panel
Q: What was the recruitment advice given to students for first steps?
The advice centered on persistence in outreach to coaches, sharing relevant statistics and scores, and aiming for both unofficial and official visits to gauge fit and keep communication open until a response is received.
