Otsego Area Rowing Members Compete in Fall Regattas

SCOTIA—Nine Otsego County rowers competed in the Mohawk Fall Classic Regatta, held on Sunday, September 29 on the Mohawk River in Scotia. There were 213 entries from 27 clubs, most of which are New York-based, including our own Otsego Area Rowing.

OAR’s Joe Novitski, of West Winfield, placed second in the Men’s Masters 1x (singles) Final with a time of 15:33.87. Creighton Williams (Cooperstown), Henry Cooper (Cooperstown), and Henrik Green (Hartwick) finished ninth, 10th, and 11th in the Junior Boy’s 1x Final with times of 18:24.46, 24:16.03, and 24:41.20, respectively.
