All Three Cougar Boats Advance to C/D Semifinals at NCAA Championships

Racing begins at 5:12 a.m. PT/8:12 a.m. ET Saturday.

WEST WINDSOR, N.J. – Battling tailwinds and rough water throughout the day, all three of No. 15 Washington State University rowing's boats advanced to the C/D semifinals after two sessions of rowing Friday, at the 2017 NCAA Championships held at Mercer Lake.

The first day of competition consisted of morning heats and then afternoon Repechage heats. In the four morning heats, the top two teams advanced directly to the A/B semifinals, while the rest returned in the afternoon to race in the Repechage heats, meaning 'second chance'.
