The Challenge by Devin Mahoney, Harvard Rowing, Coxing

The Chal­lenge : The First Woman Coxswain of the Har­vard Var­sity Heavy­weight Crew

Harvard’s first female coxswain tells of her long, fiercely ded­i­cated strug­gle to win accep­tance and respect.

From Pub­lish­ers Weekly After four years as a female coxswain at Phillips Acad­emy in Andover, Mass., which included work­ing with the men’s crew, the author went on to Har­vard, pro­pelled by a desire to com­pete with the best. Her fresh­man year was an ordeal, prin­ci­pally because the coach seemed not to like her or, per­haps, approve of a female coxswain for a male crew. As a sopho­more, Mahony was selected over more expe­ri­enced mem­bers to cox the var­sity, but Har­vard had a bad year on the water; for a time in her junior year, she was demoted to the junior var­sity. But she was called back to the var­sity and led the crew to three impor­tant vic­to­ries – over Yale, in the Nation­als and in the Grand Chal­lenge Cup at England’s Hen­ley Royal Regatta. The descrip­tions of the races are riv­et­ing, and it is reveal­ing to dis­cover that a jock is a jock, whether male or female. Copy­right 1989 Reed Busi­ness Infor­ma­tion, Inc.

 

Devin Mahoney’s book about cox­ing at Har­vard, is an in depth look at the tri­als and tribu­la­tions of being a coxswain, and being a woman. Mahoney shows the reader how she over­comes her fears and shines through her ner­vous­ness. This book is a great inspi­ra­tional read for all coxswains whether just start­ing out or expe­ri­enced. It is not a man­ual, but it teaches much of what cox­ing man­u­als lack: how it feels to need to win, and how to make it hap­pen.
