CORAL GABLES, Fla. (UCFAthletics.com) - It was a strong weekend for the UFC rowing team as it earned seven race victories in 11 attempts on a two-kilometer course on Indian Creek in Miami Beach, Fla. The Knights swept SMU, 3-0, while also defeating Miami (Fla.), 3-2.

SMU and Old Dominion are both members of Conference USA in rowing, which means the Knights will compete against both teams again at the C-USA Championships on May 18 on Melton Hill Lake in Oak Ridge, Tenn.

The course setup was unique as tall buildings lined each side of the Indian Creek. This caused strong winds that gusted and swirled from all sides the entire weekend.
