CLEMSON, S.C. – The Clemson Tigers are set to compete in the last regular season regatta of the spring on April 25th and 26th for the Lake Wheeler Invitational in Raleigh, N.C. Notable ranked programs rowing at the Lake Wheeler Invitational include No. 20 Columbia, No. 18 Duke, No. 24 North Carolina and No. 12 Virginia.
In the first season of Head Coach Adrienne Martelli’s administration, the Tigers have put up some great results. At the Rocky Top invite, the 2V8 had a first-place finish over then-No. 20 North Carolina. At the Big 10 Invitational the 1V4 placed ahead of then-No. 17 Oregon State, the 2V4 finished ahead of then-No. 21 Indiana and Oregon State, the 3V8 finished above then-No. 16 Duke and then-No. 20 Oklahoma and the 1V8 finished above Oklahoma in the final race of the invitational.
In the fall, the Tigers competed in the Head of the Charles and the Princeton Chase. At the Head of the Charles, in the first regatta under the leadership of Martelli, Clemson broke records for the fastest time recorded by the Tigers since 2008 for the Club 8+, 16:59.076, and since 2007 for the Championship 8+, 16:44.528.
