COLUMBUS, Ohio – The 15th-ranked Duke rowing team concluded action at the ACC/Big Ten Double Dual on Saturday at the Griggs Reservoir in Columbus, Ohio.
The Blue Devils' Second Varsity Eight and Third Varsity Eight highlighted the day, sweeping their races against No. 9 Michigan and No. 12 Ohio State during the two sessions.
HOW IT HAPPENED
QUOTES
"Every boat had some really great moments today. Obviously, two big wins in the 2V8, that really shows our depth and how strong of a team we are. Michigan and Ohio State are both really strong in the team events, so that was great to see. We had some very dominating performances in the 3V8 races, which was exciting. We handled the conditions really well, with the rain delay and it being really, really cold, we were still able to rise above that and perform well. We also faced strong headwinds in the afternoon and still raced hard. This doesn't define our season but it surely puts us on the right path. This weekend proves we can hang with some really strong teams, but we still have a lot of work to do." – Head coach Megan Cooke Carcagno

Duke is back on the water April 19-20 for two days of racing in the Big Ten Invitational, hosted by Iowa, at Nathan Benderson Park in Sarasota, Fla.
