Alabama Rowing Collects Seven Wins at the Big Ten Invitational
The Crimson Tide finished first in seven of 15 races in Sarasota, Fla.
SARASOTA, Fla. – Alabama rowing grabbed seven wins over the two-day regatta at the Big Ten Invitational, hosted at Nathan Benderson Park.
Friday morning's session yielded four victories for the Crimson Tide, highlighted by a five-second difference between Alabama's Second Varsity 4+ crew (7:32.583) and Wisconsin's second-place boat. UA's First Varsity 4+ crew also finished well ahead of its opponent – four seconds (7:30.622) faster than Clemson's second-place boat.
The first day of racing was capped with Alabama's Third Varsity 8+ crew crossing the finish line first (6:59.025), over one second ahead of Minnesota's second-place crew.
The weekend regatta concluded on Saturday with a three-second victory for the Third Varsity 8+ crew (6:52.238), finishing ahead of No. 16 Indiana, No. 13 Rutgers, and Notre Dame.
HEAD COACH GLENN PUTYRAE
"We saw some great racing this weekend from all of our crews and got solid results. What the times didn't show was the base fitness the athletes have developed through the long months of training. In almost every race, our crews showed that they were faster than almost every crew they raced from 500 meters in to the finish line. Because of their hard work, the athletes showed everyone that was watching the strength and depth of our team."

Tide track & field looking good. Several athletes have already qualified for the Paris Olympic Games. Still a long way to go for an NCAA national championship. SEC competition is a meat grinder.
