PHILADELPHIA -- Temple women's rowing takes to the Schuylkill River this Saturday for the start of medal season as they host the 38th Memorial Murphy Cup Regatta, taking on Drexel, Penn and La Salle. Men's crew is slated to race in the morning, with the women beginning their competition in the early afternoon.
After a 500+ day racing drought due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Temple opened its season last Saturday, racing in mixed lineups on the Schuylkill River against the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. The Owls eight boat notched a 6:57.70 to take second place between two Rutgers boats.
