Georgetown University
Georgetown University made its first appearance at Poughkeepsie in 1900 sending just a varsity 8 crew. They never won a race at Poughkeepsie, but their best finish was second place in 1903. The program at Georgetown was small and had issues with funding throughout the program's existence. They sent their last crew to Poughkeepsie in 1907 and could not afford to send another crew after that. By 1911 their crew program disbanded.
Georgetown's coaches during the Poughkeepsie Regatta included:
Claude Zappone (1900-1901), Patrick A. Dempsey (1902-1906), Murray A. Russell (former crew member) (1907-1909)
