East Lansing, Mich. — Michigan State wrapped up its 2016 season on Sunday at the Big Ten Championships in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Spartans finished seventh.
With the championship schedule cut in half due to strong winds on Saturday. racing was reduced to eight-boat finals that started at 7 am on Sunday morning. The schedule began with varsity eights, moved through three boat classes of fours, and completed with two novice eight races.
“We raced fairly well, we just werent fast enough,” said head coach Matt Weise. “I’m disappointed with the result, but certainly not with how they raced or the effort that our athletes put in.
