Oops, I got the way to advance to the A or B Final incorrect in the original post.

Just a top-3 is necessary to advance.

Cal V8 finishes 3rd (behind Texas and Brown) to advance to the A-Final.

Cal 2V8 finished 5th to the B-Final.

V4 semifinal is delayed due to weather.

Row on you bears!

Small note, 4+/4- refers to coxed and coxless fours (sweep) events, not heavy-/lightweight. (4x is the quad, which is sculled.)

Appreciate the note, Kevin, thanks! Are there also coxed and coxless eights? And I completely forgot that they also have sculling.

Love the Olympic sport coverage! Theoretically, coxless 8 is possible, but I’ve never seen it at an event. Sculled octuples are slightly more realistic but not standard races.
