Due to the size of the Regatta, double entries in any event will not be accepted except in the Men’s and Women’s Singles Event. SPECIAL NOTE: In the case of the singles race, athletes will be permitted to row in the event their coach has selected as well as the singles event so long as times do not conflict. *To enter the Women’s Varsity Hvwt Eight (Div II) event a boat must be a varsity program at an NCAA Division II institution. This event is a qualifier for other NCAA competitions and must be kept restricted to this definition. Other teams that are not NCAA Div II must row in the open event. **The Women's Varsity Hvwt Eight (Div.
