BELLEVILLE, Mich. – No. 2 Texas Rowing had four boats earn victories against No. 9 Michigan on Saturday morning at Belleville Lake to sweep the Wolverines for the second consecutive year.
Racing over the 2,000-meter course was impacted by a strong tailwind that made for a fast first 1000 meters. Conditions deteriorated in the second half of the race with a strong tailwind and heavy chip that resulted in challenging racing.
"Heading into this race I knew it was going to be challenge, and the conditions added an extra element," said Texas head coach Dave O'Neill.
