CORVALLIS, Ore. – The Oregon State men’s rowing team received an at-large bid to the Intercollegiate Rowing Association National Championships in the Varsity 8, Junior Varsity 8 and Third Varsity 8, as announced Tuesday.
The Beavers, who finished third overall and fourth in the Varsity 8 race at the Pac-12 Rowing Championships, did not receive one of the Pac-12’s automatic berths to nationals. However, a No. 14 ranking to conclude the regular season and an important win over then-No. 11 Wisconsin were enough to persuade the IRA selection committee to extend an at-large invitation to the Beavers.
