Founders Rowing
Southlake's own Founders Rowing Club is going to the national championships next month.
After becoming regional champions earlier this spring, the 13-member rowing club qualified for the U.S. Rowing Youth National Championships, which will take place June 6-9 at Nathan Benderson Park in Sarasota, Florida. With hundreds of clubs participating across the country, state and regional champion Dillan DeLugo says she's looking forward to facing the competition at nationals.
“I feel grateful to have found this sport and Founders in my junior year,” Dillan says. “The sport of rowing challenges an athlete to dig deep and overcome physical and mental obstacles to be successful. I’m so very proud of everything FRC has achieved this year and am thankful for my coach and teammates.”
