Why Wisconsin:Â
“The reason why I chose UW-Madison was because I wanted to have the ability to positively impact my surrounding community and Wisconsin would afford me this opportunity through the great academic and athletic programs.”
What Wisconsin rowing means to you:Â
“Wisconsin Rowing means so much more than showing up to the boathouse multiple times a day to practice. There is something special about being able to represent the University standing beside those who you sacrifice and suffer with each day”
