PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Former Brown men's rower Anders Weiss '15 (Barrington, R.I.) recently wrapped up competition at the 2019 World Rowing Championships in Linz-Ottensheim, Austria.
Weiss, who rowed for the United States with Ezra Carlson (Washington '17) in the men's pair event, finished 13th overall with a first-place showing in the C final. The duo crossed the finish line at 6:29.94, ahead of Poland and Denmark. Weiss and Carlson took fourth in the opening heat to advance directly to the quarterfinal, followed by a fourth-place finish in quarterfinal and a victory in the C/D semifinal.
Weiss, a former Olympian who raced at the World Championships for the fourth consecutive year, bested his most recent men's pair finish by two spots after placing 15th at last year's World Championship. He captured first place in the pair at the 2019 Senior World Championships Trials V to secure a ticket to Austria this time around.
He previously represented the United States at the 2016 Olympic Games in Brazil, where he took 11th overall in the men's pair, earning a spot in Rio after a victory in the U.S. Olympic Team Trials.
A four-year standout rower at Brown and a two-time All-Ivy selection, Weiss helped the Bears to a pair of runner-up finishes at the 2013 and 2014 EARC Eastern Sprints. He also rowed in the sixth seat of the varsity boat that earned a silver medal at the 2014 IRA National Championship.
