Alum, Zach Burns takes Silver at Paralympics in Rio!

Alum, Zach Burns, who is only a freshmen at the University of Michigan, continued his phenomenal run of international medals at the Paralympics in Rio last week. A closely fought contest with Team GB and Canada, saw the US boat (Legs, Trunks, Coxed Four) take a silver, close behind the British.

Zach will return the US to continue his engineering degree and to continue his training with the University of Michigan Men’s Rowing team.

Great work, Zach!
