UT Tower lighting scheduled tonight for Rowing

AUSTIN, Texas –

Per campus tradition, the UT campus landmark is drenched in burnt orange lighting from top-to-bottom when a Longhorns athletics team wins a conference championship.

Texas Rowing swept the five races contested at the Big 12 Championships and secured UT's sixth title in the event's eight-year history. The Horns also earned the league's NCAA Championships automatic-qualifying berth for a second straight year.

The NCAA Championships are set for May 27-29 in Gold River, California.
