Rowing is a big walk-on sport. It is a juge time commitment, especially at the Division 1 level. Brown does recruit talented rowers, but they take everyone who wants to try it out as well.

I LOVE rowing, and basically everyone I know who tries it loves it. In college it is just so time consuming that you need to give up a lot.

Rowing has very little to do with upper-body. If you know a rower you will realize that their upper body is rather sculpted but the lower body(aka Quads) are exceptionally powerful and huge.
