Athletic Excellence

Minnesota rowers travel around the country compete against the top club rowing programs in the United States. We are part of the American Collegiate Rowing Association for university programs all around the United States. We compete in the ACRA Regatta (currently in Oak Ridge, TN) in May for the club national championship. This event is now the largest collegiate regatta in the country, attended by 70 colleges and universities in 2023.

Minnesota has also graduated athletes who have moved on to row for the United States on to the world stage, including at the Olympics. All of them learned to row here on the Mississippi.
