CLEMSON, SC – The Clemson women’s rowing team will host Kansas beginning at 9:00 AM Saturday morning on Lake Hartwell. This is the Tigers fourth-straight home regatta of the 2012 spring season.

“We are looking forward to racing a strong team from Kansas on Saturday,” said Clemson Head Coach Robbie Tenenbaum. “We have made a few changes to all of our line ups since last weekend, and I am excited to see our speed.”

The first race of the morning, the 1st Varsity 8, begins at 9:00 am, followed by the 2nd Varsity 8. The Tigers and the Jayhawks will each enter one boat into those races. The next race of the morning, the Varsity 4, pits four Clemson boats against two Kansas boats and begins at 9:40 am. The next race of the day, the Novice 8 at 10:00 am, will include two Clemson novice boats and two Kansas novice boats. The Tigers will then have an alumni race beginning at 10:20 am.

“The Kansas Jayhawks have an strong novice squad this year, and our team knows it is up for a great race Saturday morning.”
