ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT
Jesse NeimerTEAM CAPTAIN FOR BOYS JUNIOR COMPETITIVE ROWING AT POCOCK ROWING CENTER
“Being a teammate means showing unrelenting support for everyone on the team...
A good teammate will pull hard, and will make it their mission that you pull hard too.
A good teammate will always offer an ear to those who have something to say.
A team is so much more than just a collection of individual athletes striving for a common goal.
A team is a family striving to achieve that goal together.”
