Including his tenure at Saint Joseph’s, Quinlan has amassed more than two decades of collegiate head coaching experience. Despite losing their most successful four-year class to graduation in 2011, in the past two seasons, the Hawks have posted solid results to build upon. Saint Joseph’s medaled in three events at the 2012 Atlantic 10 Championships, and at the Aberdeen Dad Vail Regatta,the defending champion Second Varsity 8 earned a bronze medal for its third con- secutive medal in the prestigious event. At the 2012 Dad Vails, Quinlan was presented with the Matthew Ledwith Coach’s Award, which is given to the outstanding coach from the previous year’s regatta. Quinlan’s 2011 crew had one of the best seasons in school history, highlighted by two firsts for the program - a gold medal at the Aberdeen Dad Vail Regatta and the team title in the Atlantic 10 Championships. The Hawks’ Second Varsity 8 captured the program’s first Dad Vail gold medal and the Varsity 4 took home a silver, to help SJU finish sec- ond in the team standings. Saint Joseph’s won the Freshman 8 at the conference meet, and earned top-three finish- QUINLAN’S RÉSUMÉ es in three other events to give the Hawks the league’s team crown for the first time ever. In 2010, the Hawks main- tained their status as one of the top teams in the Atlantic 10 Conference, turned in medal-winning performances (one silver, two bronze) at the Aberdeen Dad Vail Regatta, and ended the year with a trip to the prestigious Henley Royal Head Rowing Coach Regatta for the second time in school history. SJU’s Varsity 8 also set a record in becoming the only team to advance Saint Joseph’s (W) 1999-Present to the Grand Final at the Dad Vail Regatta for six consecutive years. La Salle (M&W) 1997-98 The 2009 Hawks earned a number of firsts for the program. Saint Joseph’s won its first-ever Atlantic 10 titles as the Northwestern (M&W) 1991-97 Varsity 8 and Quad boats earned the gold medals at the conference championships. Quinlan was recognized as the Notre Dame (W) 1989-91 Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year for the first time in his career, while the Hawks matched their best-ever team result with a third-place finish. The Hawks earned a bronze medal, which gave them the most medals of any team in the previous Assistant Rowing Coach four years. SJU’s Freshman 8 also advanced to the Grand Final for the seventh consecutive season. Saint Joseph’s (M&W) 1998-99 In 2008, Quinlan’s charges placed a then best-ever third as a team at the Atlantic 10 Championship. The Varsity 8 boat earned its first-ever medal at A-10s, placing second, while also taking first at the Jesuit Invitational and the Kelly Cup. The rest of the Hawks also dominated at the city-wide Kelly Cup races, taking first place in every contest. Quinlan guided the Hawks to victory in the Varsity 8 at the 2006 Dad Vail Regatta while that crew earned the school’s first-ever trip to the Henley Royal Regatta in England. The Hawks rowed to a silver-medal finish in the Dad Vail Varsity 8 in 2007 while the Freshman 8 took silver in 2008. During his tenure the Hawks have won three gold medals, six silvers, and five bronze medals at the Dad Vail Regatta. SJU has finished second in the women’s point trophy standings twice and combined with the Hawks’ men’s team to win the Dad Vail Overall Points Trophy in 2005, 2006 and 2010. Since his arrival at SJU in 1999, Quinlan has been one of the driving forces behind the growth of both the women’s and men’s rowing programs, nearly doubling participation during his tenure. Quinlan has been active in the development of the Robert M. Gillin, Jr. Boathouse, which opened in 2002, while main- taining alumni support and coordinating several local regattas, including the Jesuit Invitational Regatta. Quinlan’s résumé includes a six-year stint as the head coach of Northwestern University’s men’s and women’s programs and a three-year stretch as the head women’s coach at the University of Notre Dame. His teams have won medals at the Dad Vail Regatta, the Champion International Collegiate Regatta and the Head of the Charles, and have competed in the Henley Royal Regatta and the Mexico City International Championships. A 1991 graduate of Notre Dame, Quinlan spent his prep career rowing at Monsignor Bonner High School in Drexel Hill, Pa. He and his wife Linda, a Hawks’ assistant coach, reside in Philadelphia with their daughters, Maeve and Tess. Gerry Quinlan was named the 2009 Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year after guiding the Hawks to wins in the Varsity 8 and the Quad at the league championship. 2013-14 SAINT JOSEPH’S WOMEN’S ROWING MEDIA GUIDE 2 ASSISTANT COACHES Linda Quinlan Assistant Coach Loyola (Md.) ‘00 - 14th Season Linda Quinlan is in her 14th season as an assistant coach at Saint Joseph’s and works primarily with the freshman squad. Under her guidance, the Hawks’ Freshman 8 has experienced great success, most recently with a gold-medal winning performance in the 2011 Atlantic 10 Championships. Over the years, the Freshman 8 has earned four silvers and two bronze medals at the Dad Vail Regatta, as well as gold medals at the ECAC Meet and the Jesuit Invitational. Quinlan, a 2000 graduate of Loyola College, teaches math and science at the Philadelphia High School for Creative and Performing Arts, and is completing her master’s of education at Saint Joseph's. She and husband, Gerry, the Hawks’ head coach, reside in Philadelphia with their daughters, Maeve and Tess. Brianna Kearns Assistant Coach Saint Joseph’s ‘06 - 4th Season Former Saint Joseph’s standout Brianna Kearns, a 2006 graduate, is in her fourth season as assis- tant coach with the Hawks’ staff. Kearns was a member of the Varsity 8 for three years, including the boat which won the gold medal at the 2006 Dad Vail Regatta and made the Hawks’ first-ever trip to the Henley Royal Regatta. In 2003, she rowed for the Freshman 8 that earned silver medals at both the Atlantic 10 Championships and the Dad Vail Regatta. She returned to SJU after serving as an assistant coach at Barry University for two seasons and prior to that, worked on the staff at Philadelphia University. Kearns, a native of Northfield, N.J. who rowed for Mainland Regional High School, earned a mas- ter’s of science degree from Barry University in 2010. 2013-14 SAINT JOSEPH’S WOMEN’S ROWING MEDIA GUIDE 3 GILLIN BOATHOUSE The Robert M. Gillin, Jr. Boathouse was dedicated in June 2002 as the home of the Saint Joseph’s University men’s and women’s rowing teams. The 15,540 square foot state-of-the-art boathouse includes four heated boat bays with capacity for 42 eights, 14 fours/quads, and 14 small boats. The boathouse sits on 20,381 square feet of land at the 1,000-meter mark of the famed Schuylkill River race course. The boathouse serves as SJU’s home base for all of its home regattas, including the Dad Vail Regatta, Murphy Cup, and various dual races. The 750-square foot deck is a perfect viewing area for families, fans, and alumni. The second floor of the boathouse includes locker rooms, showers, etc as well as a large common area for ergs, team meetings, and video review. The Gillin Boat Club joined the Schuylkill Navy on September 20, 2004, by unanimous vote of the delegates of the Schuylkill Navy's 10 member clubs.

  • Blueprint for Individual Scholastic Rowers
    A 501(c)3 Not-for-Profit Incorporation 137 Bergen Avenue #C4 • Ridgefield Park, NJ 07660 www.bcrowingacademy.com (201) 320-2951 Blueprint for Students Who Want to Row for Their High School Introduction Over the past twenty years, rowing has become an increasingly more popular sport in High Schools across the Northeastern United States. It is a Spring sport among the scholastic varsity sports. The Bergen County Rowing Academy (BCRA), whose mission it is to provide rowing instruction and coaching for all age and skill levels to Bergen County residents, offers Bergen County schools the opportunity to make rowing available to their students with no to minimal financial outlay. According to Wikipedia1, “Rowing, often referred to as crew in the United States, is a sport with origins back to Ancient Egyptian times. (…) Modern rowing as a competitive sport can be traced to the early 18th century when races were held between professional watermen on the River Thames in London, United Kingdom. (…) Rowing is one of the oldest Olympic sports. It was on the programme for the 1896 games but the rowing did not take place due to bad weather. It has been competed since 1900. Women's rowing was added to the Olympic programme in 1976.” “Rowing is the oldest intercollegiate sport in the United States.” The Bergen County Rowing Academy, which holds a lease with the County of Bergen for a boat pen in Overpeck County Park, has developed an easy way for schools to allow their students to participate in scholastic rowing competitions. High school rowers from Northern New Jersey typically participate in competitions organized through the Philadelphia Scholastic Rowing Association2, the Overpeck Regional Youth Regatta (our home race), the Garden State Scholastic Championships, and the Stotesbury Cup Regatta3.

    Director of Development Merion Mercy Academy Merion, Pennsylvania www.merion-mercy.com THE INSTITUTION Founded in 1884 by the Religious Sisters of Mercy, Merion Mercy Academy (MMA) is an all-girls independent Catholic secondary school that has grown from a small village school to a premier, transformative educational institution rooted in Catholic values. Located on a beautiful campus along the Main Line area of Philadelphia, the Merion Mercy culture is welcoming and inclusive, enrolling 440 students from diverse geographic areas and socio-economic groups coming from over 100 feeder schools in the region. Approximately 52% of its students commute from the suburbs, 31% are from economically diverse neighborhoods in the city of Philadelphia, 12% are from New Jersey, and 5% are international students from China, Egypt, Korea, and Vietnam. Eighty percent of students are Catholic. The school’s footprint reaches wider than other private schools and continues to grow and expand, thanks, in part, to available transportation and financial aid. The school’s 47 devoted faculty, administrators, and counselors are forward-thinking teachers, mentors, and advisors who know students by name thanks to a 9:1 student/teacher ratio and an average class size of 17. Educators are focused on the process of learning, rather than on just covering content, as well as on differentiated instruction which addresses the fact that all students do not learn in the same way. They are experts in their fields, with 69% of faculty possessing advanced degrees and an average tenure of 16.1 years. Eight religious are part of the faculty/staff body, and three additional serve the school as volunteers.

    For the Connelly Foundation, 2020 started off like any other year. The focus was on implementing the strategic plan adopted in June 2019 and a long list of goals and initiatives for supporting the Foundation’s core areas of Education, Human Services, and Culture and Civic Life. And there was also an office renovation project to manage. Then, in just a few days in March, everything changed. As the COVID-19 pandemic raged through our community, the Foundation’s Board of Trustees and staff were forced to rethink strategy, process, and support – from remote work protocols to the grant process to payment procedures. Within two weeks on March 26, 2020, the Board of Trustees earmarked $2 million to COVID-19 relief efforts and on August 31, 2020, increased the Foundation’s budget by an additional $3 million to continue the response. Throughout the year, the Foundation took a proactive approach to grantmaking, reaching out to groups in the region, along with other philanthropic organizations, to see how it could help. This effort by the Connelly staff – working at home – required collaboration, flexibility, passion, and a commitment to the mission and legacy of the Foundation. Nobody will ever forget the 2020 pandemic. Not those whose lives were upended. Not those on the front lines of helping others. And certainly not those who offered financial and moral support. Overall, the Connelly Foundation increased its grants budget in 2020 by 24% to $15.4 million from $12.4 million, and nearly $7 million was devoted to COVID-19 relief, response, and recovery. The Connelly Foundation was hardly alone.
