Tulsa, Oklahoma - The University of Tulsa women's rowing team will take to the water for the final regular season regatta this Friday-Saturday, May 9-10, at the Dad Vail Regatta in Philadelphia, Pa. The Golden Hurricane is slated to compete in the Novice 4+, Lightweight 4+, Varsity 4+, Varsity 8+ and 2nd Varsity 8+.

"This is the largest field of teams to ever compete at the Dad Vail Regatta," Head Coach Kevin Harris said. "We are going to have to make sure we advance in every round to do well at this regatta. The seniors have been to the Dad Vail all four years and I hope they go out on a really good note."

TU is coming off a strong showing at the Midwest Intercollegiate Rowing Association Championship where they claimed the team title two weeks ago.
