WASHINGTON - GW rowing will get its final chance to compete prior to this month's Atlantic 10 Championship at the prestigious Women's Sprints, held on Sunday on Lake Quinsigamond in Worcester, Mass. The Buff & Blue will take on some of the top programs on the East Coast, including fellow Atlantic 10 foes UMass and Rhode Island.

The Buff & Blue won four of five races against West Virginia, swept UC San Diego and saw its top two boats defeat Saint Mary's.
