We’re beyond honoured to have the support of Merle Taylor — WWII veteran, mother of five, matriarch of Lochaber, and the hardest-working person we know. Happy 97th birthday, Merle! ❤️
🗣️ “She just really has been at our side since the beginning.”

Full circle: Zak Lewis '13 -- who learned to row at StFX and won a national championship title on Lochaber in 2015 -- has been selected by @rowingcanada to coach the CanAmMex and FISU squads this summer. We couldn't be prouder! @stfxuniversity @StFXAthletics
I think this group accounts for half of the @StfxOttawaAlum chapter on its own! So great to catch up with rowers from the classes of 2013-2019 this past weekend in Ottawa.

We are very proud of senior coxswain, Maddy Horne, who’s off to Switzerland to intern for FISA, the World Rowing Federation! Maddy has been a vital part of our team for 4 years, and will no doubt now make valuable contributions to developing rowing on a broader scale!
Charlotte has been an incredible student (and athlete) (and team manager!) since arriving at StFX. We know she’ll be a phenomenal nurse and academic.
