Rowing is a club sport at Northwestern. The students on the team are talented individuals who throw themselves into all aspects of rowing. In the fall they run their own regatta, The Marathon Championships. During spring training breaks, in conjunction with the town of Natchitoches, NSU crew supervises a training site for crews from the colder, windier climates. Wash U, Texas, and Wichita State are perennial visitors.

NSU is a challenging academic environment. The students on the team balance rigorous academic lives, wake up at early hours to train, and travel to distant parts of the country to race. The team is responsible for raising money through various functions as well as club dues. In the fall and winter, our team works at concession stands at Football and Basketball games.

The team travels to cities such as: Austin, Tx; Knoxville, Tn; Boston, Ma; Atlanta, Ga; New Orleans, La, and Philadelphia, Pa.

Rowers on the team develop life-long friendships, and learn diverse skills. The team plays a significant role in introducing visitors to life in Natchitoches and to Louisiana culture, and helps increase an awareness of NSU. Each individual on the team contributes his or her own strengths to these activities and toward the well-being of the club.
