Founded in the fall of 1989, Upper St. Clair Crew is in it's 19th year of rowing. Now under the leadership of coaches RJ Pisani, Hope Feldman and Jess Michalak, the team sports a strong foundation of dedicated rowers with great parental support backing the club. USC Crew pays entirely for all it's equipment; because the school recognizes Crew as a club sport and not a varsity sport (although letters are still issued), Crew relies entirely on fundraising.

USC Crew rows a total of seven different boats of various shapes and sizes:

• Intrepid - 2001 Vespoli DM Racer 8
• Serendipity - 2001 Vespoli DM Racer 4+
• William A. Pope - 1998 Vespoli DM Racer 4+
• Thomas B. Sapienza - 1995 Vespoli DM Racer 4+
• Gemini - 1999 Vespoli DM Racer 2x/-
• "The Tank" - 1983 Schöenbrod 8
• ~Unnamed~ - 2005 Dirigo 4+ (currently donated for our use!)

Upper St. Clair Crew utilizes the Three Rivers Rowing Association (TRRA) boathouse for the storage of boats and for conducting fall and spring practices. The team practices from 5-7pm Monday-Thursday (excluding travel time), and 8:30-11:30am on Saturday mornings. We also train at the Upper St. Clair High School during the winter.

Upper St. Clair Crew currently has several funraisers that occur regularly. Fundraisers help to keep the team alive, and pay for things such as boat repair/purchase, equipment repair/purchase, boathouse rack fees, and many other expenses. By showing your support through our fundraisers, you ensure that USC has a strong presence in the rowing community.

Pies are USC Crew's main source of income. They are available for sale twice a year; once in the fall and once in the spring. Pies are $10.00 to $12.00 each. They are 10 inches in diameter, frozen, made with fresh fruit, and are Kosher. Pies can be stored in the freezer for up to 4 months and can be baked (from frozen) in about an hour. Flavors generally include: Apple Walnut, Apple Crisp, Cherry, Blueberry, Peach Praline,Very Berry, Blackberry, and Raspberry. Crew pies are popular enough that no rower ever has trouble selling their year's quota of 60 pies.

Subsidizing our revenue, "crew pops" are very popular around the High School and Middle Schools, which is where they are generally sold. They come in a large variety of flavors and are extremely thick and long lasting; $.50 is a bargain for these sweet treats! Please email us if you would like to order them in bulk for any holiday or special occasion. They work great for Halloween! (please order at least 2 weeks in advance)

The team has between 2 and 4 car washes each school year. They are usually held on Saturday or Sunday and last around 4 hours. Dates, times, and locations are typically announced at the beginning of each season.
