Ian Terrell



In August 2015, Colgate men's rowing head coach  Khaled Sanad  announced  that  Ian Terrell  is joining the team as assistant coach.

Terrell comes to the Raiders from Winston Churchill High School in Potomac, Maryland, where he was varsity girls rowing coach since fall 2013. There, he led the Bulldogs to their first finals appearance in a varsity event at both the 2014 WMIRA Championships and 2015 Maryland State Championships.
 
Churchill placed third in the JV4+ at the 2015 state championships.
 
"We are excited to welcome Ian to our Colgate community," Sanad said. "Ian has a proven track record of making boats go fast as a coxswain at T.C. Williams and Trinity College.
 
Terrell also coached with the Alexandria (Va.) Crew Boosters during the summers of 2010, 2011 and 2012. He supervised and instructed groups of high school students on rowing techniques and water safety.
 
"I am very excited to join a team that has accomplished success in some of our sports' major regattas," Terrell said. "I look forward to continuing that solid foundation and to helping make the Raiders a perennial power in rowing.
 
"I welcome the opportunity to assist Colgate's scholar-athletes in finding the balance between success in the classroom along with victory on the water."
 
Terrell rowed collegiately at Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut, from 2009-13. He was a 2010 and 2013 winner at the New England Rowing Championships, and the 2010 champion at the ECAC National Invitational. Waterhouse-Terrell also competed at the 2013 Henley Royal Regatta in England.
 
The Alexandria, Virginia, native compiled a collegiate dual race record of 26-0. He graduated from Trinity in 2013.
 
Before college, Terrell competed with the Old Dominion Boat Club in the fall and with T.C. Williams High School in spring during the 2005-09 seasons. He was a 2008 state champion, placed 10th at the 2007 Head of the Charles regatta, and was third at the 2007 CSSRA "Schoolboys" National Championship in the Jr66kg 4+.
