Women's Lightweight IRA History
The women's lightweights have competed for the national championship at the Intercollegiate Rowing Association regatta since its inaugural season in 1998. The IRA championships have been held every year at Cooper River in Cherry Hill, N.J., since that year, and Princeton has won the national title five times, most recently in 2003.
