Bishop Denis J. O' Connell High School Men's & Women's Crew  

Bishop O'Connell, located in Arlington, Virginia, is part of the National Capital Area Scholastic Rowing Association. Bishop Denis J. O'Connell Crew is entering its 14th year of rowing out of Thompson's Boat Center located on the Potomac River.  Our program is supported by an active Boosters Club which sponsors many fundraising events, several team social activities, as well as a scholarship program. A committed school administration and athletic department has conferred Varsity status on our program and provides it with many fundraising opportunities in addition to financial and facilities support. The goal of Bishop O' Connell Crew is to provide a safe, competitive and enriching experience to any student who is interested in crew and to nurture individual athletic and academic growth.
