Good stuff. As a youth with no pro sports and the Huskies the only show in town, crew got a lot of free pub. Those trips to Henley were a big deal

We? also won with the QB (of the boat) having been near death- i.e., severe respiratory infection resulting in weight loss and high fever. Back then, the mighty men were willing to stare down death to beat Hitler.

Don Hume, the stroke seat had some real bad crud. Like way worse than Covid for college athletes bad.

I went to school with a Hume kid

Between Uncle Ky Ebright and going to school with Hume kids, Race could be the official historian of old timey Husky Crew.
