ITHACA, N.Y. -- Two-time Olympian Tracy Eisser closed out her 2020 Olympic Games with a fourth-place finish in the women's pairs B final to earn 10th place overall on Thursday morning at Sea Forest Waterway.

Romania took the early lead before Australia moved into the top position during the second 500 meters. The U.S. sat in fifth position for much of the race but chased down Ireland in the final few strokes to take fourth. Australia won the race in a 6:56.46, with Denmark using a strong second 1,000 meters to take second. Romania held on for third. The U.S. finished with a  time of 7:02.16
 
"I think we said six weeks ago, we know this is going to be hard, and that there is no guarantee of success," Eisser said. "And, we were right. It was very hard. But I think all of the ways in which I've been challenged and had to grow and adapt and learn – I wouldn't trade it."
