PRINCETON, N.J. - USRowing is pleased to announce that the following athletes have been invited to participate at the 2018 Under 23 Men's and Women's National Team Selection Camps this summer.
Spearheaded by Under 23 Women's Program Director Brett Gorman, the women's camp will select the U23 women's eight, four, quadruple sculls and four with coxswain that will compete at the 2018 World Rowing Under 23 Championships scheduled for July 25-29 in Poznan, Poland. The camp also will select a pair to race at USRowing's Under 23 World Championship Trials in early July. The camp will be held at the Caspersen Rowing Center in West Windsor, N.J. Gorman will be joined by Megan Cooke Carcagno (Duke University head coach), Rob Weber (Hamilton College head coach), Hilary Gehman (PNRA) and Kate Bertko (Stanford University lightweight head coach) to coach the selection camp. Last year, the women's eight won a silver medal and the pair won a bronze medal at the U23 championships rowing out of Caspersen.
Held in Seattle under the direction of University of Washington men's head coach Michael Callahan, the men's camp will select the U.S. representatives in the U23 men's eight and four. Now in his 14th year at the University of Washington, Callahan has helped establish Washington as an indomitable force in the world of rowing, developing countless athletes into U23 national team members and Olympians. In the past two Olympiads, 10 of his student-athletes have represented the U.S. in the Olympics.
In addition to the crews selected through these camps, the remaining boats will be named to the Under 23 National Team through the lightweight selection camp process or the trials process.

USRowing will continue to admit athletes to U23 camp based on spring results and available space.
