The absence of competitive results or a national championship due to the COVID-19 pandemic preclude awarding 1st and 2nd Team All America Awards for the 2020 season. However, the coaches of the CRCA still wanted to find a way to recognize the top performers in NCAA women’s rowing.
For 2020, Division I and II coaches were allowed to nominate up to four student athletes and one coxswain, and Division III coaches up to two rowers and one coxswain.
This is the full list of those nominations. While these people will not technically be named All-Americans, we congratulate them on earning the nomination from their program.
