Oregon State Completes Day 2 at IRAs

Jun 3, 2023

MERCER LAKE, N.J. – Both the Oregon State Varsity 8 and 2V8 advanced to Sunday's IRA National Championships finals on Saturday after hard-fought semifinals.
 
The Beavs will open the finals on Sunday with the 2V8 at 5:20 a.m.
 
The Beaver Varsity 8 battled with Colgate and Georgetown for fourth in the 'C' semifinal, ultimately falling to both and placing sixth. The result moves OSU to the fourth level final on Sunday, which begins at 5:50 a.m. PT. 
 
Oregon State's 2V8 was in the third and final qualifying spot for Sunday's third level finals at the 500-meter mark of its semifinal. But the Beavs couldn't hang on and were passed by La Salle later in the race, eventually placing fourth – three seconds behind the Explorers. The 2V8 will open the day for the Beavs tomorrow at 5:20 a.m. PT. 
 
Oregon State's 3V8 did not race on Saturday as they were placed in Sunday's third level final after racing was suspended on Friday. The Beavs compete at 5:30 a.m. PT
