@CanesRowing Battles Elements at Clemson
CLEMSON, S.C. — The University of Miami women’s rowing team battled wind and rain in the opening session of the 2014 Clemson Invitational.
The Hurricanes have boats racing in the 1V8+, 2V8+ and V4+ divisions this weekend. Miami’s boats hit the water on Lake Hartwell Saturday morning in the first of three sessions of racing.
Miami raced under hardly ideal conditions, battling a crosswind of 20+ mph. Despite the challenging weather, the 1V8+ finished its first race in 7:37.9, while the 2V8+ completed the 2000m course in 8:12.1 and the V4+ crossed the finish line in 9:38.4.
Due to weather, Saturday evening’s session was moved to Sunday morning. In Session 2, Miami will race against Penn, Oregon State, Washington State, Gonzaga, Michigan State and Syracuse. The 1V8+ will hit the water first, racing at 7:25 a.m. Miami’s 2V8+ will race at 8:13 a.m., while the V4+ are set to race at 8:34 a.m.
The final session will feature the Hurricanes racing against Duke, Iowa Oklahoma, Harvard, Oregon State and Tennessee. The Canes 1V8+ will again race first, starting at 9:37 a.m. Miami’s 2V8+ will race at 9:58 a.m., while the V4+ will be the last Hurricane boat on the water at 10:19 a.m.
