What's the mini-series broadcasted in the late 90s featuring a girl dressed as a boy at a boys boarding school?

The series featured a girl with dark short hair who rode a motor bike and fell in love with a boy at the school. The school had rowing teams. It was set in America.

    There was a series that aired on The WB (now CW) called "Young Americans".

    It starred Katherine Moennig as Jake (Jacqueline) Pratt, a teenage girl who disguises herself as a boy to get the attention of her absent mother. Took place at a boarding school and there was a school rowing team in the series.

    Some episodes are posted on youtube (link to episode 1 in sources). Hope this is the show you're looking for.

    Yes, Young Americans. It wasn't intended to be a mini-series, it was just canceled after 8 episodes. Dumb network idea since 10 years later people still ask about it!
