April 11, 2017 | Men's Rowing
REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. – The Washington men's rowing team has another weekend full of racing on tap, as the Huskies will travel to Redwood Shores for the annual Stanford Invitational on April 14-15.
On Friday the Washington men row in three races – the varsity eight, second varsity eight, and freshman eight - against Wisconsin, as well as a third varsity eight race against Orange Coast College.
Here's a look at Friday's (April 14) racing schedule:
4:40 p.m. – Men's Second Varsity 8+ (UW, Wisconsin)
5:10 p.m. – Men's Varsity 8+ (UW, Wisconsin)
5:50 p.m. – Men's Freshmen 8+ (UW, Wisconsin)
6:00 p.m. – Men's Third Varsity 8+ (UW, OCC)
The Huskies will be back in action on Saturday for four more races, this time against Stanford and UC Davis crews. Washington will race a first and second varsity eight and a freshman eight against Stanford, while racing a third varsity eight against UC Davis.
Here's a look at Saturday's (April 15) racing schedule:
9:00 a.m. – Men's Freshmen 8+ (UW, Stanford)
9:30 a.m. – Men's Third Varsity 8+ (UW, UC Davis)
9:40 a.m. – Men's Second Varsity 8+ (UW, Stanford)

Last weekend the Washington men swept all races at the Oregon State Classic on Dexter Lake. The Huskies won each race of the day with open water.
Stanford presents a challenging opponent for the Husky men as the Cardinal finished in second place in the petite final of the varsity eight at the IRA Championships last year (8th place overall), just four spots behind the fourth-place Huskies.

About Washington Rowing
Rowing at University of Washington was established in 1901 with support from the local business community. In 1903, Washington entered its first intercollegiate race and defeated California, starting their storied "Cal Dual" rivalry. From this beginning, UW crews became the champions in the nation, winning the Gold Medal in the Olympics in 1936 as described in the New York Times bestseller The Boys in the Boat. UW has continued its tradition of winning championships and Olympic medals, and today is one of the best university rowing programs in the world. With its state-of-the-art training facility located on the UW campus right on the shores of Lake Washington, surrounded by mountains and in close proximity to the iconic Montlake Cut, Washington Rowing attracts the best men and women student-athletes from the Pacific Northwest and around the world.
