Rowing loses to No. 20 Minnesota

No. 20 Minnesota was too much for Kansas rowing as the teams competed in St. Paul, Minn., this weekend.

The Jayhawks’ fifth Varsity Four boat won the first race of the day, edging out the Golden Gophers by 1.4 seconds.

However, the Gophers dominated from that point on. Minnesota won all the other races, including a 17.5-second margin of victory in the First Varsity Four.

Kansas returns to action this weekend to host Kansas State, Oklahoma and Texas in the first-ever Big 12 Conference Championship. The event will take place on Saturday at Wyandotte County Lake in Kansas City, Kan.
