NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. – Rutgers rowing gears up for the 2024 season with exhibition races against Temple and the Princeton lightweights on the Raritan River in New Brunswick on Sat., March 16 at 9 a.m.
Fans are invited to watch the races at the Raritan River Boat Club (200 Player Ave., Edison, NJ 08817). Fans are asked to park in the lot at the top of the hill. Driving down the hill and parking at the docks is prohibited.
Racing will occur downstream from the boathouse between the Route 1 and I-95 bridges on the Raritan.
The Scarlet Knights officially open the 2024 season on Sat., March 23 at the Big Ten/Ivy League Dust Up against Penn, Havard, Yale, and Syracuse in Cherry Hill, New Jersey on the Cooper River.
Rutgers returns 14 of the 23 athletes that competed in the three NCAA Championships boats in 2023, when RU placed 15th in the country with all three boats racing to second-place finishes in the C finals (14th overall). Among the returners is a member of the inaugural CRCA Athletes to Watch list, junior coxswain Victoria Grieder.
The NCAA Championships last spring marked the fourth consecutive appearance for the Scarlet Knights at the national regatta. Rutgers entered the national championships with just nine returners from 2022's NCAA boats, with the strong depth of NCAA newcomers keeping the trend of Rutgers outracing its seeding heading into the NCAA Championships. All three 14th-place boats finished ahead of their seed (V8 - 17th, 2V8 - 15th, V4 - 16th).
Rutgers placed fourth at the 2023 Big Ten Championship winning four medals at the conference regatta and claiming Big Ten gold for a second-straight year after the 3rd Varsity 4 won its championship race. The Varsity 8 placed fourth, while the 2nd Varsity 8 and Varsity 4 raced to bronze medals, matching their best results at the Big Ten Championships.
