Very knowledgeable about the stroke and about racing. However, will only give athletes attention and feedback or opportunities to move up if you’re on his good side— you’ll never know how you got on his bad side. He didn’t let me seat race for an entire season because of an academic engagement. Coaching staff is rotating, and communication between coaches and athletes is okay at best. There was a point where the EMU team made me hate this sport, but supporting athletics staff has helped me form a better relationship with athletics. Only go to this team if you fit the mold of a perfect rower/athlete/runner. Team culture is very cliquey, and coaches know this and don’t do a lot for team building; team building opportunities were cut every year I was on the team. My final year I had a spoke less than 100 words between Kemp and I after trying to initiate discussions. Be ready to be kicked when you're already down by Kemp because he “knows who needs a hig and who needs a kick in the ass” (no he doesn’t).

Kemp is a great coach who knows how to make something out of nothing. He is caring and understanding to athletes and always there for you if you need him. He believes in you even when you don’t believe in yourself. I’m very grateful to have had him as my coach.

Kemp is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about rowing. His athletes buy into his vision quickly because of his integrity and ability to produce results. I have loved watching him grow the EMU rowing team since I graduated.

Always motivated to learn and teach about rowing. Has the personal motivation to physically work hard, which is motivating as an athlete to see a coach willing to work as hard as they want you to work.

Kemp is one of the most well rounded coaches I've ever had. He knows when to push, when to be supportive, and has the knowledge base to adapt to any situation thrown his way. I've seen him take nothing and create competitiveness in athletes and programs. I am extremely grateful for having the opportunity to learn from him.

Kemp is one of the best coaches I will ever have. Down to earth but down to business. Always gave you the honest truth and always pushed you to be the best athlete you could be. Glad to call him coach and friend for life.

Kemp is an excellent coach! He was my coach for the World University Games team in 2018. He was always direct with me and my fellow teammates. He always balanced how we were feeling with increases or decreases training volume.
