The ACRA Regatta is raced on a fully buoyed course, with a floating starting platform. Seventy rowing programs had entries in the 2024 Regatta. Athletes were only allowed to race in one event and there were over 2,000 competitors. This is the largest regatta the Cougs race at, and the conclusion of the season. The numerous teams lead to close racing all weekend, and lots of competition.

Summary:

Washington State had a good weekend at the ACRA Regatta. WSU had more athletes entered in more events than in 2023. The team's speed continued to get faster once again this year.

The Cougars ‘Took Care of Business’ on Friday by qualifying all seven crews to the A-B Semifinals, on Saturday. The top three crews in each semifinal race advanced to the A Final (also known as Grand Final, for places 1-6) on Saturday. The bottom three crews raced in the B Final for places 7-12) Qualifying seven out of seven entries into the A-B Semifinals is a WSU team record.

WSU had three student-athletes on the 2024 ACRA All Regional team. Congratulations Carter Mills, Ezra Klinghoffer, and Evan Thornton.
