WEST WINDSOR, N.J. – For the seventh year in a row, No. 2 Texas Rowing advanced all three boats to the NCAA Championships 'A' Finals after taking home a semifinal victory in the First Four and claiming a pair of runner-up finishes by the Eights at Mercer Lake on Saturday. Each boat will compete for an NCAA National Championship in Sunday's Grand Finals.
Texas is one of four programs to send all boats to the 'A' Finals this year, joining Stanford, Yale and Washington.
"These Saturday semifinals are always tough and very stressful, so it's very satisfying to get all three boats into their A finals," Texas head coach Dave O'Neill said.
