The top-ranked women's rowing team is on its way to New Jersey for the NCAA Championships this weekend on Mercer Lake in West Windsor. The Golden Bears rowed to the national title on the same lake in 2006.

In preparation for the NCAA Championships this Friday through Sunday, the team left earlier this week to get acclimated to the lake and the environment before beginning competition. We talked to head coach Dave O'Neill in his office before the Bears left for New Jersey and have reports from rowers Clair Premzic and Erica Rippe from training in Pennsylvania.
