2010s

In the 2010s, Notre Dame Rowing pushed harder, trained smarter, and began making serious waves at the national level. The Men’s Varsity 8 earned a 4th-place finish at ACRA, and the Men’s Pair brought home a gold medal—proof that the team could go stroke for stroke with the best club programs in the country. This era saw the expansion of the program’s training calendar, the introduction of structured year-round development, and a growing alumni network that began to organize and give back in meaningful ways. The rowers of the 2010s laid the competitive and institutional groundwork that today’s team is building on—and their legacy lives on in every launch off the dock.
