Cal Sweeps Day One Of Las Vegas Invitational

PROVIDED BY CAL ATHLETICS

LAS VEGAS – The California Golden Bears men’s rowing team got its season underway Friday at the Las Vegas Invitational with a successful outing, sweeping all three races with the varsity eight, 2V and 3V lineups. Originally scheduled to start on Saturday, several of the races were moved up to today due to predicted high winds slated for this weekend.
 
The 3V kicked things off going up against Drexel University’s 2V and Oregon State’s 3V, winning by over 16 seconds with a time of 6:02.44. The men’s 2V followed up with an even more dominant performance defeating Oregon State’s 2V by over 28 seconds with a time of 5:55.22. Rounding out the races was the 1V, who defeated Oregon State’s 1V by just under 20 seconds with a finishing time of 5:49.53.
 
All three boats will close out the Las Vegas Invitational tomorrow with the 2V and 3V taking on the University of San Diego at 7:15 a.m., followed up by the 1V who will take on Colgate at 7:45 a.m.
