Athletic Talent Search
The Nationally-Ranked Iowa Women’s Rowing Team is seeking to invest in Iowa’s top female athlete(s) by dedicating as much as a full athletic scholarship to the 2019 Homegrown Hawkeyes Athletic Talent Search.
Homegrown Hawkeyes is a search for athletes who have never rowed but are driven to compete at the highest level of NCAA athletics and excited about the idea of transferring their athletic talents to a new sport at the collegiate level.
Hawkeye Rowing has a reputation for being one of the best talent-development programs in the NCAA. In 2018, UIowa led the nation with nearly 85% of the NCAA Championship roster starting their rowing careers as freshmen.
These Homegrown Hawkeyes helped lead the Team to a #7 National Ranking, a #11 NCAA Championship finish, and wins over World Championship medalists while on tour in Europe. Some of these sameHomegrown Hawkeyes have been identified by the US National Team and are on the path toward elite competition.
