The Beavers will race three crews – the Varsity 8, Junior Varsity 8 and Third Varsity 8 at the national championship regatta June 1-3 on the shores of Lake Mercer in West Windsor, N.J.

"It's an honor to be selected to race the best crews in the country," head coach Gabe Winkler said. "We want to finish this great season with the best boat speed we've had all year. The guys are excited to push through this final training period and to exceed the rankings.
