MEDFORD, MA (June 20, 2025) – Four members of the national runner-up Tufts University men's rowing team were announced on Thursday as 2025 Empacher-Intercollegiate Rowing Coaches Association (IRCA) All-Americans for Division III.
In order to qualify for All-American status, individuals must have raced in their team's first varsity boat for the spring racing season. Earning the recognition for the Jumbos were senior
Max Landers, juniors
Aidan Keusch and
Maxwell Rosenberger and sophomore
Peter Conard. Landers and Rosenberger are on the first team, while Conard and Keusch received second-team accolades. The four recipients for Tufts match the most in the nation for Division III.
Landers and Keusch are both All-Americans for the second straight year as Keusch was first team and Landers second team for 2024. This year's honor is the first for Conard and Rosenberger.
Keusch at coxswain and Rosenberger (5-seat), Conard (4-seat) and Landers (3-seat) in the middle of Tufts' first varsity boat were key contributors to another successful season by head coach
George Munger's Jumbos.
Tufts was the team points trophy winner at the Intercollegiate Rowing Association (IRA) DIII Championships this season. The first varsity boat was the national runner-up at IRA's. The Jumbos won the National Invitational Rowing Championships points trophy, which included a third-place finish for the 1V8 in the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) Championship contest.
Landers and Conard were both NESCAC All-Conference first team selections, announced before IRA's. Back in the fall they were also in Tufts' first eight that produced a solid sixth-place finish in the collegiate eights event at the Head of the Charles Regatta.
