It was a great weekend for the entire Atlanta Junior Rowing team! Out of 12 events entered at this year’s Southeast Regional Championship in Sarasota, Florida, AJRA made the grand finals in 11 events, and medaled in 6. Further, AJRA qualified four boats for USRowing Youth Nationals, including the Women’s Varsity 8+, Women’s Varsity 4+, Men’s Varsity 2-, and Men’s Lightweight 8+.

There were big changes at Regionals this year, with novice events eliminated in favor of Under-17 events, and our varsity and novice squads teamed up to compete in mixed boats and represent the entire AJRA team.

Medalists include:
Women’s Varsity 8+, 2nd
Women’s Varsity 4+, 3rd
Men’s Varsity 2-, 3rd
Men’s Lightweight 8+, 3rd
Women’s 2nd Varsity 4+, 1st
Women’s 3rd Varsity 4+, 1st
