Des Moines, Iowa -- Creighton rowing bested Drake on Saturday, Nov. 4 in the annual fall duel between the two rivals.
Â
This season the two squads competed at a new location on the Des Moines River and in a new racing format, racing each other on a 650-meter sprint course off the program's boat dock. The teams competed in three official races, varsity 8+, 2nd varsity 8+ and varsity 4+, in a best of three flights format for each race.
Â
Creighton won two out of the three official races to claim the trophy awarded to the champion. The Bluejays were victorious in both flights of the 2nd varsity 8+ and the varsity 4+ to retain the trophy for the second-straight year. The Bulldogs' varsity 8+ boat won both of their flights.
