The Quaker Chronicles (feat. Al Monte)

On this week’s episode of the For Stars Podcast, Hudson brings on Head Coach of Penn Heavyweight Rowing, Al Monte, a man who lives and breathes Philadelphia. Entering his third season this year with the Quakers, Al is back in the boathouse and ready to take on this next year. Hudson and Al discuss the 2023-2024 season where the team went neck and neck with Northeastern, inches apart from one another at the IRA National Championship closing in with nearly the same time to end the year. Al calls it somewhat of a rivalry, so we shall see how this year unfolds for both of the teams out East. The two talk about what makes Penn Rowing so unique, the maturation of the squad since his arrival, upgrades to the boathouse, what the process looks like of bringing on the right guys to the team, and more.
