Medford to Row in State Championships

The Medford High School crew team will finish the spring season with the Massachusetts Public School Rowing Association Championships on Sunday, May 27.

Medford will be among nearly twenty public schools competing in Lowell on the Merrimack River, according to parent Julia Hendrix. The Mustangs are entering twelve races, including eights and fours in both the women and mens’ varsity and novice, and both women and mens’ doubles.
