Does someone who hopes to compete as a lightweight rower in college need to register with the ncaa clearinghouse?

I guess my question is multifaceted in that first off, does someone who is not sure they will be competing in American college athletics register? Secondly, my understanding being that lwt. rowing is not under the ncaa, do (female) lightweight athletes need to register at all?

My guidance counsellor seems to think I need to (but doesn’t really differentiate between lwt. and hwt. rowing). A big thanks to anyone who can clear this up for me.
