PHILADELPHIA - As the 2011-12 rowing season begins, all three teams -- men's heavyweight, men's lightweight and the women's side -- are holding open tryouts for any Penn student interested in joining a Division I varsity program.

An informational meeting for prospective team members will be held Wednesday, Sept. 7 in the Donaldson Room in Weightman Hall, located in front of Franklin Field. The informational meeting for both men's teams will be from 6-7 p.m. and the women's meeting is from 7-8 p.m.

No prior rowing experience is necessary, just a desire to work hard and a willingness to learn a new sport while competing with the best in the country.
