In 2002, his boat suffered a single loss to the University of Washington, but beat Washington on several other occasions including the IRA.
After a two-year pause because of a shoulder injury caused by a mountaineering accident, in 2003 Wetzel returned to the international rowing scene and he joined Team Canada.
