PHILADELPHIA - The Saint Joseph's women's rowing team will defend its conference titles in the Varsity 8 and the Quad at the 2010 Atlantic 10 Conference Championships on Saturday, April 17 at the Cooper River. The event begins at 8 a.m. The Hawks will also contend for conference championships in the Second Varsity 8, Freshman 8, Varsity 4 and Freshman 4.
