The 82nd annual Jefferson Dad Vail Regatta returned to spirited form after not holding competition in 2020 and a spectator-less regatta in 2021. For Saturday's final, Drexel is favored, but Temple looks like a strong contender.
It’s been three long years without fans ringing bells and hollering while filling up the grandstands as teams of rowers glided down the Schuylkill River racecourse.
Of the local schools competing in the men’s heavyweight varsity eight, Drexel, Temple and St. Joseph’s advanced to Saturday’s final. Villanova fell outside of the top-two qualifying spots in its heat.None of those schools fielded boats for the women’s varsity eight due to scheduling conflicts with conference tournaments.
“They’re a mature boat and they know how to handle themselves in high-stress situations,” said Drexel coach Paul Savell. “I think today they did what they needed to do to move on. Tomorrow is going to be a really competitive, tough race day.” “They’re bigger than we are, they’re very well-coached and they’re good,” Perkins said. “But if you want to be the best you’ve got to beat the best so here we are heading into Dad Vail Saturday.”
