UT Tower lighting to honor No. 1 Rowing set for tonight

AUSTIN, Texas — The University of Texas Tower will be lit in Burnt Orange on Sunday evening, May 15, in recognition of No. 1 Rowing's Big 12 Conference championship title. Fans are encouraged to arrive in front of the Littlefield Fountain on 21st Street from 8-8:30 p.m. CT, when the team will arrive to take group photos with their Big 12 trophies.

Per campus tradition, the UT Tower is bathed in Burnt Orange lighting from top-to-bottom when a University of Texas athletics team wins a conference championship.

The No. 1 Rowing team won the 2022 Big 12 title with a clean sweep of five races at Walter E.
