Elliot Hovey, Olympian
Elliot Hovey is an Olympian. He is the man. I rowed with him out of Boston Rowing Center for a summer in high school. He sat behind me in 4 seat when we won the Junior Mens 8+ Gold Medal in the summer of 2000. I remember that we crossed the finish line and he splashed water on me and gave me a celebratory shoulder shake.
Elliot is from Manchester-By-The-Sea, Massachusetts. He went to Salisbury School. Elliot also won the IRA National Rowing Championship gold medal in the Varsity Heavyweight 8+ in 2006 with my high school coxswain, Tim O'Connell, who is also the man.
Elliot is representing the United States of America in the double along with Wes Piermarini, who is from West Brookfield, Massachuetts and went to the University of Massachusetts, where he was a walkon on the heavyweight crew.
They begin racing Saturday. Watch, and wish them good luck!
