This year the Mountaineers are slated to compete in four events at the Knecht Cup. The varsity eight and junior varsity eight boats will make their third regatta appearance of the season, while the varsity four and junior varsity four boats will be competing for the first time in 2007.
This will be WVU’s sixth trip to the Knecht Cup since 2002. The varsity eight boat took first at the regatta in 2003.
