The regatta and Razorbacks open line
Posted By Max Brantley on Sat, Aug 30, 2014 at 4:20 PM
I'll put up an open line now with the Hogs off to a promising start against Auburn. Also above is a photo by Brian Chilson from today's Six Bridges Regatta, the resumption of competitive rowing on the Arkansas River in downtown Little Rock.
One rower encountered a bit of difficulty, hitting a bridge pier nearing the finish line as she led her race. Some powered boaters provided an assist in getting her back at the oars.
