Men's Lightweight Rowing
at Head of the Charles

Q & A with Adan Rivas
Why Dartmouth?
Being from Massachusetts I wanted to go to school in New England to make traveling easy. My high school adviser recommended I look into liberal arts schools, which at the time I didn't
know what that meant but I'm glad it worked out. The term system and Hanover being a small town are good fits for me. Lastly, the sustainability programs here were a huge draw because
I'm a potential (environmental) engineer major.
How long have I been rowing and what sparked my interest?
I have never rowed before college, but the culture behind rowing--training wise is appealing based off my experiences from running and wrestling.
Have I won any awards?
As a rower no.
Something interesting about yourself?
During the final seconds of my first basketball game for my elementary school team during 3rd grade I launched a deep two when one my teammates fumbled the basketball and it ended up being the game winner.
