SYRACUSE, N.Y. –
The No. 14 Syracuse University men's rowing team will open its spring season against No. 11 Wisconsin on Saturday morning at the Cayuga Lake Inlet in Ithaca, N.Y. The race was moved from the Onondaga Lake Outlet in Liverpool, N.Y. due to inclement conditions.

Saturday's race marks the Orange's first race of the spring racing season. The varsity eight crew was ranked No. 14 nationally in the Preseason USRowing Collegiate Poll and has held onto that position in each of the next two ranking releases. Wisconsin's varsity eight crew ranks three spots ahead in the latest poll release.

Four races will be held on Saturday morning blocks from the campus of Cornell University. Competition will begin at 8:45 a.m. with the varsity eight race. The second varsity eight competition will follow 20 minutes later, while the third varsity eight race will be held at 9:25 a.m. Racing will conclude at 9:45 a.m. with the fourth varsity eight competition.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. –
For the third consecutive week, the Syracuse University men's rowing team's varsity eight crew ranks No. 14 in the nation in the USRowing Collegiate Poll. Syracuse has been ranked No. 14 in the country in every ranking release to date this season.

The Orange will face top competition week in and week out this spring. Every team Syracuse is slated to race in its first four events are currently ranked in the top 20 of the latest US Rowing Collegiate Poll. No. 7 Boston University is currently the highest-ranked crew the Orange is scheduled to face in its first four races of the season.

Syracuse will open its spring season Saturday morning against No. 11 Wisconsin. Racing will begin at 8:45 a.m. in Ithaca, N.Y.
 
Winning in the 2V and only being a couple seconds off Wisco this early in the season is positive to see. The guys have only been on the water for a couple weeks after spending 8 weeks indoors training on ergs (worst 8 weeks ever). Dave R. will surely be doing some seat racing to see if any of the 2V guys can make the 1V faster.
