Antarctica is not known for its rivers, because as you assume in your question, the continent is covered -- 98% of it -- with an ice sheet.

Any 'river' in Antarctica is truly seasonal, glacial melt water that flows in the 24/7 summer sun. As it gets colder, the water freezes again, the glaciers freeze again, and there is no more 'river.'
