Homegrown Hawkeyes

The Homegrown Hawkeyes program is an athletic talent search and scholarship opportunity for Iowa’s top female athletes. The search is aimed at athletes who have never rowed but are driven to compete at the highest level of NCAA athletics and would be excited to transfer their athletic talents to a new sport at the collegiate level.

This unique program provides an opportunity for Iowa’s top student-athletes to become key players in the next generation of Hawkeyes.

Homegrown Hawkeyes have helped lead the team to multiple top-10 national rankings, team-record NCAA Championship finishes and wins over World Championship medalists while on tour in Europe.
