BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - The University of Louisville rowing team won three of four scrimmage races against Indiana University on Saturday afternoon on Lake Lemon.
The Cards' second varsity eight crew turned in a time of 17 minutes, 13 seconds to defeat the Hoosiers' third varsity eight crew with a time of 17:18, while IU's second varsity crew finished in third with a time of 17:57. IU's novice eight crew was next at 20:12, followed by the Cards' novice eight (21:03) and the Cards' second novice eight (22:31).
