PRINCETON, N.J. - USRowing today announced the crews selected from the training centers that will represent the United States at the 2015 World Rowing Championships August 29-Sept. 6, in Aiguebelette, France.
Six crews were selected and approved by the USRowing High Performance Committee, including the men's and women's eights, men's and women's fours, lightweight men's four and women's quadruple sculls.
Ten crews have already been named to the team from either world rowing cup performances or the Senior I World Championship Trials. Seven crews were selected in the first trials including the lightweight men's and women's single sculls, men's pair with coxswain, lightweight men's pair, lightweight men and women's quadruple sculls and lightweight men's eight.
In addition, five crews that won national selection events and have earned and accepted nominations from world cup performances were named to the team including the women's single sculls, women's pair, women's double sculls and lightweight men's and women's double sculls.
The 2015 Senior World Championships Trials II is scheduled to begin Sunday and will be the final selection event for the four remaining categories for the men, including the single sculls, double sculls, pair and quadruple sculls.
