Top-Ranked Texas Tops No. 10 Virginia in Monday Rowing Action

EARLYSVILLE, Va. – No. 1 Texas won all four races against No. 10 Virginia in Monday morning (April 24) rowing action at Rivanna Reservoir.

The Longhorns defeated the Cavaliers in the Varsity Four (7:12.7-7:22.7), Second Varsity Four (7:18.6-7:38.4), Second Varsity Eight (6:28.9-6:37.9) and Varsity Eight (6:17.1-6:24.7).
