NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The University of Dayton women's rowing team opened up its 2026-27 season this Saturday in Nashville at the 10^th annual Music City Head Race.

The Flyers were excited to get on the water and compete against other teams while seeing where they are conditioning-wise. UD did not disappoint as the varsity 8+ squad kicked things off with a third-place finish in the opening race. That set the tone for the Flyers throughout the weekend.

UP NEXT
Dayton will finish up the short fall season at the Bald Eagle Invitational on Nov. 7 in Indianapolis.
