March 29, 2026 | Women's Rowing
The Trojans’ Third Varsity Eight placed second in the finals to highlight the weekend.
SAN DIEGO, Calif. — Highlighted by the Third Varsity Eight's runner-up finish, two boats from the No. 22 USC Women's Rowing Team wrapped up the San Diego Crew Classic on Sunday, March 29.
In one of the biggest spring regattas on the West Coast, USC's Third Varsity Eight took second to UCLA by 1.9 seconds in the Women's Collegiate Novice 8+ race after USC won a close race in the prelims. Later in the day, the freshman-heavy squad took sixth in the Women's Collegiate Varsity B 4+ race, which Washington won in an open-water victory.
