All eight Scarlet Knight boats qualify and race in the grand finals at the Women's Eastern Sprints

WORCESTER, Mass. – No. 7 Rutgers rowing sent all eight of its boats to the grand finals at the Women's Eastern Sprints on Lake Quinsigamond Sunday while earning seven medals in the championship-style event - including five gold medals. The results led to Rutgers' second team title at the annual Eastern Sprints (joining 2019).

The Varsity 8, Varsity 4, 2nd Varsity 4, 3rd Varsity 4A, and 4th Varsity 8 all claimed victories in their grand final races, while the 2nd Varsity 8 and 3rd Varsity 8 both earned bronze on Sunday.

The Scarlet Knights won all six heats in the morning. The top two boats from each heat advanced to the grand final at the Eastern Sprints.

The V8 beat out runner-up No. 8 Brown by 6.3 seconds of open water in its grand final. The V4 won an exciting photo finish against No. 14 Harvard by less than a tenth of a second to win gold. The 2nd Varsity 4 cleared No. 8 Brown by five seconds to win its grand final race. The 3V4A raced to a dominating 15.1-second victory in its final race to win gold. The 4V8, racing directly in the grand final against three other boats, finished first by 2.1 seconds over Michigan State.

The 3V8, after winning its heat by 11.5 seconds over Michigan State, took bronze in the grand final behind No. 8 Brown and No. 19 Columbia. The 2V8 also took bronze behind No. 8 Brown and No. 14 Harvard.

The Scarlet Knights look to carry golden momentum into the Big Ten Championships set for Sat. and Sun., May 17-18 in Indianapolis.
