When we think about Syracuse Orange athletes pursuing a career in sports after leaving the 315, we tend to just think about football and basketball. However, there are a number of former Syracuse standouts who continue to train and compete at an elite level.
This summer we'll give you an update on some of those athletes. Former Syracuse rower Mike Gennaro hasn't stopped competing since leaving Syracuse in 2011. He has been a member of several US National Teams, and was an alternate on the 2012 US Olympic Team. Last year, Gennaro was selected as the National Team Athlete of the Year as part of USRowing's Fan's Choice Awards.
