SARASOTA, Fla. – A bronze medal by the Tar Heel third varsity eight highlighted a weekend of racing at the Sunshine State Invitational for the UNC rowing team. Five Carolina boats competed in heats on Friday and finals on Saturday.

“This was a great race for us to compete in at this point in the season,” UNC coach Sarah Haney said. “This race has varying leveled of competition and represents where we have come from and where we need to be. We didn't compete in all events as well as wanted but it was really good for us to see that at this point in the season.
