Mar 28 | Women's Rowing
CHERRY HILL, N.J. – No. 9 Rutgers rowing will compete at the 2025 Doc Hosea Invitational on Sat., March 29 beginning at 8 a.m. on the Cooper River.
The 12-team field includes Bucknell, Drexel, Eastern Michigan, Georgetown, Navy, Northeastern, No. 12 Penn, Rhode Island, St. Joseph's, Temple, and Villanova.
The Doc Hosea Invitational honors longtime Rutgers team orthopedist Dr. Timothy Hosea, who passed away suddenly in Aug. 2015. Dr. Hosea, who worked with the Rutgers Athletics for over 30 years, was a prominent figure in the rowing community, serving as team physician for the USRowing national team.
The championship-style regatta will send the top two boats from each heat and the next two fastest heat times to the grand final, with the remaining boats going to the petite final.
Rutgers won the Doc Hosea Invitational in 2019. The event awards four points for each place in Varsity 8, three points per place in 2nd Varsity 8, and two points per place in Varsity 4. All other boats will earn one point per place. The V8 will be worth 48 points, the 2V8 36 points, and so forth.
The Scarlet Knights enter the event with three reigning Big Ten Boats of the Week - the Varsity 8, 2nd Varsity 8, and 2nd Varsity 4 - who all won races in the season opening Big Ten Ivy Dustup last weekend.
