About the Opponents
The Hoosiers will only be competing against one top-20 boat, but two boats will be out on the water this weekend. Both Ohio State and Wisconsin have top-20 Varsity Eight's, but Indiana will only race against Wisconsin.
Ohio State's Varsity Eight sits atop the latest poll, while Wisconsin's Varsity Eight is 13th.
The two other Big Ten schools competing this weekend, Iowa and Minnesota, have both almost broken into the polls this season.
Looking Ahead
The University of Iowa will host the fifth annual Big Ten Women's Rowing Championships on Saturday, May 1, at Lake Macbride in Iowa City, Iowa.
