April 23, 1984, THE TRINITY TRIPOD, Page 15 More Sports Coxswains Fill Rowing's Void "Eight big men and their little cox" That is the humorous depiction'of crew expressed on a bumper sticker achieving popularity in rowing circles. And there really is something funny about the role a coxswain plays. "In the fall they needed a cox and asked me because they said I was small and had a big mouth," explains freshman Stephanie Blessey of her start as a cox. Blessey is the coxswain for the J.V. lightweight eight this spring. Indeed there is a good deal of truth in the stereotyped tiny and loud coxswain screaming at eight huge oarsmen. However, the job in- - volves considerably more than a healthy set of vocal cords and is, in fact, one of the most fascinating in sports. The cox stands in a unique position of fulfilling the sports cliche — coach,on the field. As such, a good coxswain fills a vital link between the coach and the rowers and maintains a unique relationship with both. "You've got to be able to work with the coach," explains Betsy Wray. "If a cox doesn't like a coach or a coach doesn't trust a cox it doesn't work." Wray is in her sixth year as a cox, four years while at Groton and two at Trinity.

% I. Tuesday Afternoon

by Stephen K. Gellman On race day, the coach is left to watch from the shore and it's the cox that holds total responsibility for the rowers. And even on practice days, when the coach watches the rowers from a launch, the cox must help relay the coach's thoughts, expressed through a megaphone, to the rowers. \ . .. "I think what I appreciate most is his or her ability to anticipate what has to be done," says lightweight.coach Jeff Cooley. "The cox should be a link to the crew." . Naturally the crew is the third part of a triumvirate — coach, cox, crew — that makes a boat go. ".You work off each other," says women's varsity cox Martha Erskine, "you go as three entities trying to find what works." ' . , Varsity lightweight coxswain Chris Melo flies into the water after Saturday's win. To the one, the coxswains talk of a different relationship that distin- guishes the cox from the rest of the rowers.
