Ritchie (East Dummerston, Vt.) led the Bates women's rowing team to the NCAA Women's Rowing Championships for the second year in a row. Bates competes with seven other Division III teams and two at-large eights at nationals this Friday and Saturday at Lake Natoma in Gold River, Calif., the home course of the University of California at Berkeley.
