After competing in Des Moines, Chattanooga, Austin, Tulsa and Manhattan, the Kansas rowing team will return to the waters for their only home regatta of the year. At 11 a.m. on Saturday, the Jayhawks will race against the Kansas State Wildcats at Wyandotte County Lake in Kansas City, Kan.

This is the second time that the Kansas rowing team has met up with Kansas State in a head-to-head matchup. The first was Nov. 10 in Manhattan. Despite a good showing, Kansas lost by a score of 16-9. However, their three novice boats won their respective matches, and the varsity boats were only narrowly defeated.

Kansas is coming off a recent loss to Texas in Austin in which they were defeated in all six races. Results were still encouraging, as Texas already competed in four events earlier in the spring while Kansas had not competed in any.
