MPR’s Annie Feidt reports on the University of Minnesota's newest varsity team is preparing for its first competition…the women's rowing team. They will race in the Head of the Mississippi regatta, a three mile race on the Mississippi that cuts through the middle of campus. The sport's varsity status has brought money and support to a team that used to rely as much on its fundraising ability as its speed in water.
