Virginia Rowing Announces Fall and Spring Racing Schedules
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Virginia rowing head coach Wesley Ng announced the Cavaliers’ 2025-26 fall and spring racing schedules on Friday (Oct. 17).
The 22-time Atlantic Coast Conference champions will compete in three fall races and five spring regattas beginning with the Doc Hosea Invitational on March 29.

Our final tuneup at the Lake Wheeler invitational should be a good dress rehearsal for the ACC Championships.”
