Savell was instrumental the development of the Mountain Hawks' program from a team of 30 to more than 100 members. While Savell was successful in growing the number of rowers in the Lehigh program he also led the squad to success at major regattas across the country. Over the past five seasons, Savell has had three boats in the grand finals of the IRA National Championships. In five of the last six seasons, the Lehigh men's varsity eight finished in the top 12 at the Dad Vail Regatta. In the 2005-06 season, the Lehigh men's varsity four took third at the Head of the Charles Regatta and took fourth at the IRA's. In 2002, the women's varsity eight earned a first-place finish at the Head of the Charles Regatta. Under Savell's guidance, the Lehigh rowing team captured the Patriot League Challenge title in 2001 and 2006. In addition to his impressive coaching resume, Savell is an accomplished rower. He starred at Holy Spirit in High School before attending the University of Wisconsin. Savell rowed stroke in the varsity eight for two seasons. He captured a National Championship at the IRA's as a senior in the straight four. He also won four straight Midwest Crew Championships and earned a third-place finish in varsity four at the IRA's as a freshman. Savell graduated from Wisconsin with a degree in engineering and earned his a master’s degree in business administration from Lehigh in 2001. Savell is assisted this season by Joe Palmer, Terah Schamberg and Sarah McIntyre. Palmer works primarily with the men’s novice row- ers while Schamberg works with the women’s novice rowers. McIntyre is a graduate assistant coach. Drexel Crew Drexel crew is a Division I varsity program with a 60-year tradition of excellence on Boathouse Row in Philadelphia. More than 25 rowers comprise Drexel crew each year ready to compete for victory in the varsity and second varsity heavyweight eights at the historic Dad Vail Regatta. Most of Drexel's rowers are recruited from powerhouse programs in the Mid-Atlantic and New England regions with some from across the country as well. Each season a few freshmen with no rowing experience are selected from tryouts to join the Drexel crew. Drexel crew is a cross-section of University academic life, with athletes majoring in everything from bio-medical engineering, to fashion, history, and design. Many Drexel rowers are preparing for professional school and academic excellence is commonplace. The Dragon crew works with the full support of Drexel's sport medicine, equipment and academic service offices, as the quest for Dad Vail gold is a team effort by the committed athletic department. From October to May the home of Drexel rowing is the Hollenbeck House, Boathouse Row #4; where our rowers are part of a vibrant row- ing community that annually produces college, high school and international champions from the lively Schuylkill. Less then a mile from campus, each day the rowers run or bike into Fairmount park to launch their day's training. Several times a week the rowers gather at the Walter Spiro Varisty Weight Room in the Daskalakis Athletic Center for their specially designed weight training program. The high- light of the fall season is the Head of the Schuylkill, which is the largest one-day regatta in the world. Another fall team tradition is the Drexel Crew Triathlon, a row-bike-run event where Drexel rowers battle it out for title of the fittest athlete.
