Coach Porter is the best of the best. I have talked to him a few times and each time I learn something valuable and important while speaking to him. Truly believe he wants the best for his athletes. He focuses on character building which says a lot about him as a person. Be on Coach Porter’s team if possible. There’s a reason why he is successful, and even one of the most successful rowing coaches of all time.

Will knows how to connect with his athletes and cares for us not just as athletes, but also as students and people. He understands the commitment of being an Ivy League athlete and does an amazing job of pushing us to be our best selves while focusing on having fun and continuing our love for the sport. I could not have asked for a better coach.
