Overview
Crew - Boys Team
Brooks has one of the oldest high school rowing programs in the United States. We continue to believe and invest in our tradition of developing rowers within a residential academic community. Whether an athlete is brand new to the sport or arrives to campus with his own single scull, Brooks offers the facilities, equipment, coaching experience and engagement to support his growth, realize his potential, and propel him forward into opportunities well beyond Lake Cochichewick.

Completed in the summer of 2023, the 7,500-square-foot Demoulas Family boathouse replaces the longstanding Lyman Boathouse and Holcombe Boathouse. In addition to state-of-the-art storage for the racing fleet and nearly 100 years of photographs and artifacts, the boathouse offers Brooks’ and visiting spectators a 900-square-foot viewing area overlooking the four-lane Lake Cochichewick race course. It is our goal to provide athletes and spectators one of the best racing venues in the country.
Housed in the centrally-located Danforth Gym, the Armstrong Rowing Center features two sets of eight-oared rowing tanks, sixteen ergometers and specialized equipment enabling rowers to measure and improve their fitness and technique. Athletes have access to the facility throughout the academic year.

Brooks races coxed fours in the spring. A member of the 60+ school New England Interscholastic Rowing Association (NEIRA), Brooks hosts competitors each week from throughout New England on its 1500-meter, multi-lane course on campus. Following the NEIRA Championships held in late May, Brooks frequently extends its season into the summer.
Brooks raced in the Youth National Championships in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024, and competed at the Henley Royal Regatta in 2022.

Coach
Christopher "Tote" Smith joined the Brooks faculty as a teacher and Director of Rowing in the summer of 2016. Smith learned the sport of rowing under Lightweight Coach Andy Card at Yale University, where he was fortunate to be part of two varsity crews with undefeated regular seasons in 1990 and 1991, the first of which also claimed both the Eastern Sprints and IRA Championships. Having coached the Brooks JV girls under the leadership of former Director of Rowing Sally Morris in 2003, he now brings back to Brooks nine years' experience as assistant and four years as head rowing coach at Salisbury School, where the varsity eight medaled in three of the past six NEIRA championships, including a gold and back-to-back National Schools championships in 2016. He is excited to be back at Brooks and looks forward to working with rowers and coaches to further develop both the girls' and boys' programs.

After graduating from Salisbury, he went on to Cornell University, where he was a member of the heavyweight team for four years.
