STANFORD, Calif. - No. 10 Stanford women's rowing heads back to Lake Natoma for Sunday's Pac-12 Championships.

Stanford returns to competition following The Big Row on May 4, where the Cardinal was defeated in each class by second-ranked California. Prior to that, Stanford has earned victories over Washington State (twice) and Oregon State while coming in behind USC in the only meeting between the crews at the Lake Natoma Invitational.
