Talk about it

WINDSOR, N.J. - The University of Wisconsin openweight women's rowing team advanced two of its three boats into the semifinals of the NCAA Rowing Championships.

Heavy fog, a little rain and some strong winds in the morning turned into a sunny and warm afternoon on Lake Mercer in West Windsor, New Jersey. The varsity four qualified with a third-place finish in its heat, while the second varsity eight advanced by finishing second.
