The Butler Rowing Club is a club team for both men and women who attend Butler University. We will teach anyone how to row! There truly is no experience necessary to try out for our team. We have both a Fall and a Spring competitive season when we travel to regattas hosted throughout the Mid-West and during the winter, we train indoors at the HRC on campus.
Head Coach: Andy White
A Purdue graduate ('97) with a degree in Political Science, Andy is an Admission Counselor with Butler University . Andy started rowing while at Purdue and has been involved in the sport ever since. In 1999 Andy took on the position as head coach for the Butler University Rowing Club and has helped grow the team immensely during his tenure.
