advanced to semifinals advanced to semifinals
SJU ROWING TRADITION Although not the oldest sport at Saint Joseph’s University, the Hawk rowing program has established itself as arguably one of the most successful in the school’s long and storied athletics history. Making its mark on Philadelphia’s famed Schuylkill River since 1954, SJU rowing celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2003-04. First emerging as a club sport in 1954, rowing received official varsity status in 1959 and immediate respect when Al Rosenberg was named head coach. Rosenberg had helped the United States to a gold medal at the 1954 Pan Am Games and a silver at the 1958 European Championships. He guided the SJU program for just two seasons before taking over national team boats, but laid the groundwork for future success. Legendary coach Joe Toland took over for Rosenberg and established SJU as one of the East’s most successful programs from 1961-73. Toland helped SJU to six championships in Bergen Cup competition, as well as three President’s Cup crowns. His varsity heavyweight eights advanced to the Dad Vail final in 12 of his 13 seasons. The V8 accomplished the greatest feat of the early era of Hawk rowing by winning the Dad Vail in 1970 and the team captured the Bratton Trophy as the overall points champion in 1971. Six of Toland’s former Hawks would go on to represent the U.S. in international competition. Toland relinquished the reins of the Hawk program to one of his former Hawk standouts, Jim Glavin. A member of SJU’s 1970 Dad Vail champs, Glavin would go on to coach several junior national team boats. With the face of the University changing, the rowing program returned to club status following the 1975 season, but continued to produce strong crews throughout the 1970s and 1980s. Rowing returned as an official varsity sport in 1991 and the program quickly reclaimed its status among the nation’s best. In 1999, the Hawk men penned, arguably the greatest feat in school history, matching the great 1971 Hawk squad by winning the Dad Vail points title for the second time in school history and competing at the prestigious Henley Royal Regatta on the Thames River in London, England. The University affirmed its commitment to rowing by breaking ground, along with St. Joseph’s Prep, on a state-of-the-art boathouse along the Schuylkill River. Named in honor of Robert Gillin, Jr., construction was completed in time for the 2002 Dad Vail Regatta and provides a permanent home for the Hawk rowing programs. Former SJU standout Drew Hill took over as head coach of the SJU program in 2003 and immediately made his presence felt. Sixteen Hawk boats advanced to the Dad Vail finals (15 claiming medals) in his first five seasons, and SJU matched the 1971 and 1999 squads by capturing the men’s points title in 2003, 2005 and 2006.
The 1971 crew, under legendary coach Joe Toland, captured the points title at the Dad Vail Regatta.
SJU Athletics Hall of Famer Mike Teti was the head coach for the 2008 U.S. Olympic team, guiding the U.S. to the bronze medal in Beijing.
Individually, 12 former Hawks have competed internationally and seven have been inducted into the Saint Joseph’s Athletics Hall of Fame, including Glavin, Toland, Richard and Donald Flanigan ‘60, Joe Henwood ‘68, Chris O’Brien ‘92 and Mike Teti ‘78. Arguably the best-known oarsman in America, Mike Teti was a top Hawk rower, graduating from SJU with a sociology degree in 1978. “Saint Joseph’s gave me the opportunity to compete and also the opportunity for a great education,” Teti says. “I owe SJU a great debt for all of the opportunities I received.” From 1977-93, Teti rowed on 11 national teams, including three trips to the Olympic Games. He won 24 national championships, a gold medal in the men’s eight at the 1987 World Championships and a bronze medal in the same event at the 1988 Olympics. He was named the 1987 United States Rowing Male Athlete of the Year. Teti achieved even greater notoriety as a coach, guiding the U.S. men’s open eight squad to an unprecedented three straight world championships. He also coached the men’s four with coxswain to world championship gold. In 1996 he led the lightweight men’s four to an Olympic bronze medal before being named USRowing’s Head Men’s Sweep Coach, the highest coaching honor in the country, in October of that year. Teti became the U.S. Olympic coach following the 2000 Games, and led the men’s eight boat to gold in Athens in 2004, a feat that the United States had not achieved since 1964 when another coach with Hawk ties, Al Rosenberg, led the Americans to victory. Teti also guided the U.S. Men to the bronze medal at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. Teti is currently the head coach of the men’s crew team at the University of California and was inducted into the National Rowing Federation’s Hall of Fame in 2010. A more recent Hawk to make his mark on the international scene was 2011 graduate Ryan Pawling. As a freshSAINT JOSEPH’S ROWING man, Pawling coxed the Adaptive HEAD COACHES Mixed Four squad to fifth place in the World Championships in Munich in 1959-60 2007, which qualified the crew for the Al Rosenberg Joe Toland 1961-73 Beijing Olympics in 2008.

THE HAWK
SAINT JOSEPH’S UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS MISSION STATEMENT The Mission of the Athletics Department at Saint Joseph’s University reflects the Mission of the University by using the programs within Athletics as a way to develop the whole person and preparing men and women for others. • To educate the whole person by complementing the academic experience with athletic and recreational programs and activities outside the classroom. • To create an environment for personal growth through openness, respect, and a concern for others. • To communicate the value of community and family through team work and sportsmanship. • To provide opportunities for students to learn self-discipline, responsibility, decision-making, and attainment of goals. • To provide opportunities for students to participate and compete in a first-class manner. • To provide equitable opportunities for all students and staff, including women and minorities. • To advance the University regionally and nationally through intercollegiate athletics.
The Saint Joseph’s Hawk mascot has been flapping its wings for 60 years. One of the most famous mascots in college sports, the Hawk is best known for staying in constant motion by flapping its wings throughout every basketball game and representing the Saint Joseph’s motto, “The Hawk Will Never Die”. Saint Joseph’s athletic teams have been recognized with the nickname “Hawks” since 1929. At that time, the school’s yearbook editor initiated a contest among the student body for a symbol. More than 100 submissions were narrowed, with “Hawks” winning out over “Grenadiers” by a slim margin. The name was appropriate because it typified “the fighting spirit of our crimson and gray athletes and it is suggestive of the aerial attack which has made our football team famous.” Football, ironically, was discontinued at SJU following the 1939 season. The Hawk mascot has garnered numerous accolades in its 60-year history, and in 2013, it was named “College Basketball’s Best Tradition” by NCAA.com. It has been selected as the nation’s top mascot by The Sporting News, Sports Illustrated, Sports Illustrated for Kids, Street & Smith’s Basketball Yearbook and ESPN College Basketball magazine and was a nominee for the 2008 Mascot Hall of Fame. 2015-16 SAINT JOSEPH’S MEN’S ROWING MEDIA GUIDE • 19
THE UNIVERSITY How do Hawks live greater? The will to live greater exists in all of us. At Saint Joseph’s University (SJU), we use a Jesuit word, magis, roughly translated as “more,” to describe how we are pushed to think more, learn more and be more. We find magis in the classroom, through service, athletic competition, and in how we treat one another. Above all, living greater unites us as one — one university, one common cause, one powerful force for good in the world. Caitlin Walley ’15, a food marketing major, earned a business degree while also keeping her love of theater close to her heart. When she wasn’t busy mesmerizing audiences with her leading roles, she was building a better SJU by founding the Iota Rho chapter of Phi Sigma Sigma sorority. At the same time, she single-handedly launched her career by attending large-scale tradeshows with food industry leaders in Chicago, Ill., and interning at Merck, one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world. Caitlin chose to make her time matter at SJU. Brian Lafferty ’15, a criminal justice major, changed his own life and the lives of fellow Hawks. He made an impact on the SJU community as vice president of the student government and a resident assistant, all while excelling in academics and achieving membership in three honor societies. His passion for helping others and his SJU pride flourished as a Hawk Host tour guide and an orientation leader. And, as a leader of SJU’s off-campus ministry programs, he discovered how to help others live greater, while at the same time exciting audiences at every basketball game as the Hawk mascot.
