Varsity men’s lightweight coach Marty Crotty has stepped down from his position to pursue other professional opportunities, Princeton University announced in a June 3 press release. Crotty is a co-founder of Princeton CarbonWorks, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of carbon fiber bicycle wheels for competitive cycling and triathlon.

“The Princeton boathouse has been part of my life for over 30 years and always will be,” said Crotty. “I want to especially thank Mike Teti for introducing Princeton to me; Curtis Jordan, for giving me the chance to coach at Princeton, and my current colleagues Lori Dauphiny, Paul Rassam, and Greg Hughes with whom I have worked with for more than 20 years.”

Crotty coached the Princeton lightweight men to two IRA national championships in his 15 years as the head coach and won two more as a heavyweight oarsman at Princeton, graduating in 1998.

“Stepping away from coaching, and from Princeton University, was a difficult decision,” said Crotty, “but I’m looking forward to the new opportunities that lie ahead. And I will always be Princeton Rowing’s number one fan on the shores of Lake Carnegie.”
