The single-file formation does not prevent any team from overcoming the one in front, though. Sauer said he will be looking for tough competition this weekend, but if the team keeps its pace and rhythm, the Cavs should not have problems dominating the opponents. Being in time with one's fellow teammates is key and signifies a strong and well-paced team. A good crew makes it look easy, even though it's not. You look for good explosion through the water in moving the boat.
Bodies moving together - that's a pretty good mark of a good crew.
Virginia hopes to outpace the competition this weekend, and although the season is young, Sauer said he expects a solid effort from his squad this weekend. The head racing is to get races under their belt. It looks pretty good. We've got some good kids. We just want to see how hard they can go on Saturday.
