Senior Andrew Reswow and sophomore Moritz Franz will serve as co-captains of a squad that last season captured a school-record five cups in the varsity eight races and reached the IRA Grand Final in the freshman eight event.
Entering the month of April ranked 23rd in the mid-major softball poll, Boston University is seeking its third NCAA berth in the last four years.
