A former member of the Grand Valley State University Rowing Club, Kylen Patterman, has earned an NCAA Division I scholarship with the University of Louisville.
Patterman will join the Louisville women’s rowing team after finishing out her distinguished career at GVSU. She competed at the varsity level in both 2012 and 2013, and was a major contributor to the team’s American Collegiate Rowing Association’s national titles. She was named to the ACRA All-American First Team in 2013.
She graduated with a degree in anthropology in three years, and has two years of eligibility remaining at the NCAA level.
The Cardinals figure to be one of the top teams in the Big East Conference again this season after placing second in the 2013 Big East Championship.
