Hear from a Former WRA Junior

"The lessons I have learned through rowing have completely shaped my personality and character. I have been able to compete at a collegiate level against some of the most renown colleges across the country and also the national level against some of the sports greatest Olympians. Rowing is an art, a sport, and a passion. It is hard work, day in and day out, but the feeling of fulfillment from this sport is unmatched. You don't need to be great to start, but you need to start to be great. If you are looking for a place to fit in, an outlet for travel, or a chance to find success through hard work, rowing is a sport that will teach you more then you ever thought imaginable."

~ Liz Matthews, OCU Women's Rowing
