The Yale V8 celebrates after winning the IRA in 2019

With the IRA falling victim to the COVID-19 crisis this year, row2k offers you our Virtual IRA 2020; we've taken 16 of the fastest IRA Varsity Eight Champion crews going back to the 2000 IRA, and created matchups using our proprietary seeding formula. The top vote-getting crews from each matchup will move on to the next round each week, until a champion is crowned.

Voting for the Semifinals is open from Monday, May 18th until Friday, May 22nd (5pm EST)
