BETHEL, Ohio - Each of Rhode Island's three boats punched their tickets to the D Finals after racing in the C/D Semifinals on Saturday morning on Lake Harsha.

Rhode Island's Varsity 8+ of coxswain Lily Stasaitis, stroke Catie Castle, Bethany Nordstrom, Nicole Jones, Samantha Gumprecht, Cait Reardon, Emma Barnhart, Sarah Pecoraro and Bella Bruno was tight with the rest of its five-boat field through the first 500 meters. Eventually, the top three contenders - Indiana, Duke and Northeastern - pulled away while URI held off Jacksonville. Rhody enters the D Final with the fastest semifinal time.

The Second Varsity 8+ placed fifth in its semifinal but enters the D Final with the second fastest time overall. Coxswain Ellie McGee, stroke Jessica Tosi, Olivia Kowalski, Hailey Pardi, Sammie Gorecki, Eryn Wale, Amanda Cubit, Maia Hembruff and Emma Larsh maintained overlap with the Northeastern Huskies for the majority of the race.

Rhody's Varsity 4+ of coxswain Evelyn Tabor, stroke Emily Olin, Irma Accius, Abby Galayda and Emma Brookins had a solid start as all five crews were in contact for most of the opening sequence. Eventually, the crews settled into their respective paces with the Rams coming across fifth.
