Apr 12 | Women's Rowing
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Rutgers women's rowing was edged in its inaugural Big Ten Conference races Saturday at Ohio State, falling in double dual action to No. 19 Minnesota and No. 18 Wisconsin on the Scioto River.
FULL RESULTS "The team had a good day of races in our Big Ten debut," said head coach Max Borghard. "We faced No. 18 Wisconsin in the morning session and focused on the execution of our race plan. The team learned things in their first race that were applied to the afternoon races against No. 19 Minnesota. They represented Rutgers well."
Rutgers gets back on the water next Saturday, April 18 in Philadelphia for a race against St. Joseph's and Navy.
