High school rowing coaches see growth opportunity as University of Toledo adds team
Mike Dibling, chair of the Toledo Rowing Foundation, had two daughters who rowed at a high level. With no Division I rowing programs in the area, they went to West Virginia University. In a news conference announcing that the University of Toledo is adding varsity women’s rowing for the 2025-26 season, Athletic Director Bryan Blair explained that he viewed the program as a way of creating opportunities that did not exist for Dibling’s daughters. “When you think about your daughters rowing here on the Maumee, they went on to row collegiately,” he told Dibling. “And now just having the opportunity for [girls like] them to stay right at home and have an education at the University of Toledo, but also be a division one rower and champion, that’s what really excites me.”
