Please join us June 12th at Porter Boathouse as we induct legendary Wisconsin Head Coach Randy “Jabo” Jablonic into the Hall of Fame and officially open the Wisconsin Rowing Hall of Fame.
This evening is more than a ceremony—it is a gathering of generations shaped by Jabo’s leadership, values, and unwavering commitment to the Badger rowing tradition. From national championships to quiet moments on the dock, from young oarsmen finding their way to lifelong bonds forged in the boat, Jabo’s influence is woven into the very fabric of Wisconsin Rowing.
We come together to say thank you—for the standards you set, the lives you shaped, and the legacy you entrusted to all of us. Your impact extends far beyond medals and records; it lives on in every Badger who rows with pride, integrity, and heart.
We hope you will join us as we celebrate! Link to register and share your favorite picture and story of Jabo for a memory book in bio.
