Cardinals earn five race wins over Hoosiers and Jayhawks; Louisville adds two wins over No. 14 Iowa
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - The No. 20 Louisville rowing team earned five race wins and a team scoring victory over No. 16 Indiana and Kansas while also adding a pair of races wins against No. 14 Iowa during Saturday's double dual event on Lake Lemon.
"I am very proud of how the team came out of the gates. Then, they did a great job with the lineup changes we had to make in the top two eights after an injury occurred," said Louisville head coach Derek Copeland. "They just went out in their new lineups and did their best against a speedy Iowa group. That resilience is important if we want to become a perennial NCAA team."
The Cardinals opened the event, hosted by Indiana, by winning five morning races against the Hoosiers and Jayhawks and accumulating 51 points overall. Indiana was second with 49 points and Kansas had 20 points. Louisville's second varsity eight crew of Kim Streetz (coxswain), Allison Zimmermann, Madeleine Chesney, Leah Stump, Sally Rozumalski, Abbi Fitts, Erin Enk, Rachael Schmetzer and Claire Bahain had a time of 6:43.60 and was more than two seconds ahead of IU and 12 seconds clear of KU. The varsity four crew of Kate Allport (coxswain), Hannah Richardson, Caroline Lynch, Kiara Loucks and Emma Ison won its race with a time of 7:28.80 with Indiana in second at 7:32.38 and Kansas third at 7:36.92.
Louisville's second varsity four boat featuring Tiffany Chea (coxswain), Kaitlin Ulbert, Mackenzie Garland, Riley Kerber and Mallory Burnett had a time of 7:38.20, more than 14 seconds ahead of the Hoosiers. The third varsity eight boat with Caitlin Ponko (coxswain), Gabi Biedenharn, Victoria Goldin, Amelia Herrera, Kylie Noltemeyer, Madison Luette, Abigail Davies, Vanessa Fiedler and Riley Penhorwood finished at 6:59.40 with Indiana in second at 7:05.46 and Kansas in third at 7:12.36. The fifth victory for the Cardinals during the morning session came in the third varsity four race as the crew of Perie Howard (coxswain), Carlie Heimann, Meredith Price, Gillian Burns and Beth Schlagel had a time of 7:46.18, nearly 30 seconds clear of Indiana.
During the afternoon session, Louisville's second varsity four boat with Perie Howard (coxswain), Kaitlin Ulbert, Mackenzie Garland, Elizabeth Patrick and Mallory Burnett had a time of 7:40.31 and was more than five seconds ahead of Iowa.
