By the end of the morning Saturday, the full men’s and women’s team that will represent the U.S. at the 2021 Olympic Games in Tokyo this summer will be set.
Friday afternoon, USRowing announced its crew rosters for the team boats that will compete in the men’s four and eight and the women’s quad, four, and eight. With the crews that have already been named to the teams through trials and the Final Olympic Qualification Regatta, eight of the nine U.S. crews are now known.
