Hawkeyes Complete Day 1 at Big Ten Invitational

SARASOTA, Fla – The Iowa rowing team wrapped up day 1 at the Big Ten Invitational on Friday at Nathan Benderson Park.

The Hawkeyes raced in the 1V8, 2V8, 3V8, 4V8, 1V4, 2V4, and 3V4 with a talented field consisting of No. 3 Washington, No. 6 Tennessee, No. 7 Brown, No. 9 Rutgers, No. 11 Penn, No. 12 Michigan, No. 14 Ohio State, No. 16 Duke, No. 17 Oregon State, No. 18 Harvard/Radcliffe, No. 20 Oklahoma, No. 21 Indiana, and No. 24 USC.

Iowa’s top placements of the day came from the 3V8 and 4V8 in the morning session, placing third against No. 6 Tennessee, No. 9 Rutgers, and Michigan State. It is unique to the Big Ten to have first-year rowers only in these two boats.

The Hawkeyes return to action tomorrow morning at 7:50 a.m. (CT) with the 3V8. Fans can watch live on RHSTV or follow along here.

QUOTING HEAD COACH JEFF GARBUTT
“We learned a lot today that there are lots of fast crews both in our conference and nationally. Our women rose to challenge in the afternoon session bringing more aggression and fire to the course. I am extremely proud of how our third and fourth varsity boats competed and handled themselves. They rowed with a lot of composure, effort, and drive. If the conditions allow, we are always striving to be faster than we were the day before. We are looking to see an even more renewed level of enthusiasm in our athletes to finish the weekend strong!”
