Women's Rowing Captures Second at WCC Championships

LAKE NATOMA, Calif. – Gonzaga women’s rowing placed second in the West Coast Conference Championships on Saturday morning. The Bulldogs totaled 47 points on the day, second only to Oregon State’s 54, and delivered strong results across all championship races.

“I am really proud of this team,” head coach Andrew Derrick said. “We had some great ups and some downs and struggled to gain some traction at times this season, but these are amazing women, great competitors, fun to coach, and wonderful ambassadors of our program and university. We raced well this weekend, it just wasn’t enough to move on, but that doesn’t change how we feel about this team and these seniors … they are amazing!”

The highlight of the regatta came in the Varsity Eight grand final, where Gonzaga’s top boat surged down the course with consistency and control. They opened with a 500-meter split of 1:40.4 and reached the halfway mark in 3:25.0, maintaining a sharp cadence through the middle 1,000 meters. By the 1500-meter mark, they were clocked at 5:03.9 and powered through the final stretch to finish in 6:45.780. Their performance held off a fast-charging Washington State crew and earned them a silver medal, just behind Oregon State’s winning time of 6:36.160.

In the Varsity 4, the Zags again found their rhythm early and held it through all four quarters of the race. Opening in 1:51.8 at the 500-meter mark, they extended to 3:50.9 at 1,000 and crossed the 1500-meter mark at 5:46.0. Their final time of 7:43.754 secured third place finish, only behind WSU and OSU.

Gonzaga’s Second Eight boat also competed well and finished second overall with a time of 6:55.688. Their splits—1:44.0 at 500 meters, 3:30.0 at 1,000, and 5:14.0 at 1,500—reflected a strong and even performance from start to finish. Though Oregon State again claimed the top spot, the Bulldogs held off a persistent challenge from Washington State in the final stretch.

The other scoring event from the day came from a gritty showing from the Second Varsity Four, who placed third in a competitive grand final. They went through the 500-meter marker in 1:56.7 and continued with splits of 4:03.0 at the halfway point and 6:07.5 at 1,500 meters before crossing the line in 8:08.428. The crew fought hard to hold their position and added critical points toward the overall team total.

With all four scoring boats landing on the podium, Gonzaga secured second place in the team standings, edging out Washington State (43 points) and well ahead of Sacramento State (33), San Diego (30), and the rest of the WCC field. Portland, Creighton, Saint Mary’s, and Santa Clara rounded out the standings.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – The fourth-seeded Indiana volleyball team (25-7, 14-6 B1G) will play in the Sweet 16 for just the second time in program history. The NCAA announced start times and dates for next week’s regional semifinals on Sunday (Dec. 7) afternoon. The Hoosiers will play top-seeded Texas at Gregory Gymnasium on Friday (Dec. 12) afternoon at Noon ET on ESPN.

 

Following the greatest regular season in program history, IU was awarded a top-16 national seed and the chance to host the opening two rounds of the NCAA Tournament. The Hoosiers made quick work of their first two matchups, sweeping Toledo and fifth-seeded Colorado in Bloomington to advance to the Sweet 16.

 

IU is one of five Big Ten programs remaining in the NCAA Tournament. Of the 16 schools left in the big dance, IU is one of two teams (Cal Poly) that didn’t make the big dance last year. The Hoosiers have already set a single-season program record for wins (25) and will attempt to advance to the regional final for the first time in program history.

 

The other matchup in the Austin Regional will pit second-seeded Stanford and third-seeded Wisconsin against each other. Their match will begin 30 minutes after the conclusion of IU’s. The winners of both regional semifinals will meet on Sunday (Dec. 14) afternoon for a spot in the national semifinals in Kansas City.
