Greg Cain (Colorado Academy) qualifying in the single scull at US Rowing Central Youth Districts in May, 2017.

Mile High Rowing’s Greg Cain finished up his second year of rowing with a seat on the US National Under-19 Team, competing against 21 other athletes from all across the country to represent the US at the World Championships , August 2-6, in Trakai, Lithuania. Greg will race in the double sculls with Toby Satterthwaite from Providence, R.I. This brings Greg’s career as a national level competitor full circle.

He made his first appearance last year at Junior Nationals in the lightweight double sculls with fellow Mile High rower Matt Larouche, winning the C final with a time of 7:03.125. With Matt off to his freshman year, rowing for Bucknell, Greg decided to train in his single scull, finishing 4th in the county at this year’s Junior Nationals in Sarasota, Florida. His stellar performance at US Rowing’s selection camp now has him back in the double sculls and training for Worlds.

Greg is the third Mile High Rower to compete for the United States. Up against programs twice the size and some decades older, Mile High Rowing Club has nevertheless made it mark on national team rosters. Maddie Lips (Chaparral High School) earned a seat in the junior women’s 8+ in 2010 and came home with silver from Worlds and was on the Under 23 team in 2012 and 2013. Kendall Chase (Mullen High School) competed as a high school student on the world stage in 2012, bringing home bronze in her race in the women’s four. She’s been on the Under 23 team every year since 2014 and has collected four golds from each of her appearances. She is currently training for a seat in a boat that will race at the Olympics in 2020.
