IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Eight members of the University of Iowa rowing team earned Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association (CRCA) recognition on Thursday.
Sophomore Morgan Grastorf -- who was recently invited to attend the U.S. Women's Under 23 National Team Selection Camp -- tabbed her second consecutive first team All-Central Region honor. All-Region candidates are evaluated on the strength of their team's regional finish, coach recommendations and 2,000-meter erg score. Grastorf is the seventh Hawkeye rower to earn a regional award since 2008 and one of three to receive multiple honors.
The honor allows Grastorf to be eligible for All-America awards selection after the completion of the NCAA Rowing Championships, which run from May 29-21 in Gold River, California.
