AUSTIN, Texas – The University of Texas Tower will be lit in Burnt Orange on Tuesday evening, May 21, in recognition of No. 1 Rowing's Big 12 Conference championship title. Per tradition, the University recognizes UT sports programs who win a conference team championship with a Burnt Orange lighting of the campus landmark.

Fans are encouraged to arrive in front of the Littlefield Fountain on 21st Street at 8:45p.m. CT, when the team will arrive to take group photos with their Big 12 trophies.

The No. 1 Rowing team won the 2024 Big 12 title with a clean sweep of five races at Nathan Benderson Park in Sarasota, Fla.
