PRINCETON, N.J. - USRowing is pleased to announce that 33 athletes have been accepted to the 2016 U.S. Women's Under 23 National Team Selection Camp, to be held in Princeton, N.J., at Princeton University.
The camp will be coached by University of Pennsylvania's women's head coach Wesley Ng, who will be assisted by Hamilton University's women's coach Rob Weber. Ng and Weber will head up the selection of the women's eight, four and quadruple sculls that will compete at the World Rowing Under 23 Championships August 21-28 in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. The camp will also select a pair to compete at the Junior, Under 23 & Senior Non-Olympic Trials, July 18-22.
Invitations to selection camp were based on performance on the 2015-16 National Team Ergometer Testing Protocol, coach recommendations, past performance in international and domestic racing, competitive performance during training sessions and the athlete's ability to match the style and technique of the crew as determined by the designated coach. In the case of coxswains, invitations to selection camp were based on video and audio tapes of practice and race performances.
