Total Team Meters 9,616,442

February 16, 2022: Nearly seventy alumni, students & friends pitched in to row 9,616,442 meters in the annual C2 January Virtual Team Challenge (JVTC). For the challenge rowers had to row as many meters as possible between January 1 and January 31 then log their daily meters using the Concept 2 Logbook. The results were then ranked against other teams. The SARA team finished in 32nd place out of 814 teams -- improving on last year's 37th place finish! Thank you to everyone that participated.

The combined Case/SARA team beat the combined UC student and alumni team from University of Chicago by over 600,000 meters -- closer than we like it, but still the right result. We also took top honors for the "education" category amongst all teams. Our alumni beat the UC alumni for the eighth year in a row. Due to lingering impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic many students didn't have access to ergs so they again did not race against the UC students this year. The upshot is that everyone on the team - students and alumni - that completed the 200km got hats this year!

Leading the charge for SARA this year were alumni Dan Bachmann and Doug Rathburn with Dan pulling 447km and Doug clearing 381km! The top undergraduate finisher was Jerry Yang with 313,078m. Thirty-one people passed the 200km mark this year to earn a free hat. Congratulations to everyone and a special thank you to the 20 alumni earning their 2022 hat.
