Cara De Carlo, featuring Kelly Powell, Sarah Burns, and Colleen Hamilton of Fox Chapel rowing:

"Fox Chapel seniors Kelly Power, Sarah Burns and Colleen Hamilton are fast on the water and quick in the classroom.

They were each named to the 2012-13 USRowing Scholastic Honor Roll.

Athletes who earn the USRowing honor roll distinction must fulfill several requirements. One is to be among the best on the waves.

For example, Fox Chapel competed in the Women's High School Junior 4+ finals at the Midwest Scholastic Rowing Championships. The regatta took place in May at Lake Harsha near Cincinnati. The Fox Chapel team earned fifth place (out of 19 in the original three heats)."
