To be consistent with how the sports is called in the official NCAA website, Cal men’s and women’s crew has changed their name (and Twitter accounts) to Cal men’s and women’s rowing this past summer.
Due to the bad weather forecast for Sunday in Sarasota, Florida, the 2018 NCAA Women’s Rowing Championships has moved up its grand finals from Sunday morning to Saturday afternoon. Instead of having a full day of rest, crews will now rest for less time...particularly if a crew has to go through the repechage races on Friday afternoon to advance to the A-Finals.
Nevertheless, I don’t think the change in schedule will benefit either the 2nd ranked California Golden Bears or the defending champs in the top ranked Washington Huskies.
