Row.Team A conversation with Yasmin Farooq - Head Coach, Women's Rowing, University of Washington

'Yaz' served as a coxswain for the United States National Women's Eight from 1989 to 1996 and first competed at the Olympics at the 1992 Games in Barcelona. At the 1996 Games in Atlanta, she was the U.S. captain. As an international coxswain, she won three silver medals at World Championship regattas, in 1990, 1993 and 1994, and her international career reached its pinnacle in 1995, when her U.S. eight won the World Championship in Finland, the first-ever world title for a United States women's eight. Yaz coached at Stanford for 10 years before moving to University of Washington in 2016. In 2019, after winning a third straight Pac-12 title, Washington pulled off its second sweep at the NCAA Championships – just the second ever. The Huskies' varsity eight stunned the crowd in Indianapolis with an incredible come-from behind victory.
