Cal Men’s Crew at IRA Championship Preview: Can Cal best UW?

The oldest and grandest organized sports in the rich Cal history will see its 147th season (it started in 1870) ends at the 115th annual Intercollegiate Rowing Association (IRA) National Championships. This year’s IRA National Championships will take place at the familiar Lake Natoma in Sacramento, after the last few years on the East Coast. Golden Bears will be racing for program’s 18th national championships.

I previewed Cal Men’s Crew at the beginning of the season. I also did a Q&A about rowing with Calympian and current associate head coach Scott Frandsen at the beginning of the year.
