REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. - No. 11 Stanford and No. 2 California faced off in three classes at Saturday's Big Row at Redwood Shores, with California capturing all three races.
The schools raced in the I Eight, II Eight and Frosh Eight classes.
In the men's main event between the I Eight crews, Stanford crossed the line in a time of 5:48, nine seconds back of the California boat, as the Golden Bears retained the Schwabacher Cup.
The Cardinal II Eight would fall by 11 seconds to the Golden Bears, crossing the line in a final time of 5:58. On the Frosh Eight side, Stanford's time of 6:22 was 31 seconds back of California's 5:51.
Both schools wore aquamarine ribbons in honor of late California rower Jill Costello, who passed away from lung cancer last June.
