On Sunday, the Oregon State University men’s rowing team proved they are one of the best in the conference and worthy of their No. 14 national placing when they finished the Pac-12 Championship regatta in third place.
The day of racing, which took place in Gold River, Calif on the waters of Lake Natoma, featured six schools, Washington, Cal, Stanford, Washington State, Colorado and Oregon State. The sunny day in California was dominated by No. 2 seeded Washington, as they managed to win all five races knocking off No. 1 seeded Cal in each.
Oregon State, which placed third in four out of the five races, took third on the day by just one point 50-49, as they were able to continuously beat rival of the day, the Stanford Cardinal.
