Lenny Peters Cup

In October 2025, America's champion Lauren O'Connor led from wire to wire over Germany and Ukraine to win the Lenny Peters Cup for USA and a cash prize of $10,000.

In other headline races, the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, won the collegiate race of Duke University, the University of Oxford, England and local favorite HPU.

Drama, tension, incredible rowing, camaraderie and sportsmanship were served in equal measure, captivating an audience around the world. It’s an event that transcends sport, yet remains true to the spirit of its founder, Dr. Lenny Peters.

This Fall, the Lenny Peters Cup returns to High Point on October 24, 2026. Top collegiate teams from around the world will again converge on High Point and the race of the day will be an international challenge against the defending World Champion Team USA Women's Four Crew.
