March 30, 2019 | Men's Rowing

DEXTER LAKE – The No. 18-ranked Oregon State University men's rowing team picked up a pair of wins over UCLA at home on Dexter Lake near Dexter, Ore.
 
The Beavers battled the Bruins taking home wins in both the Varsity 8 and Varsity 4+ on a beautiful Saturday morning.
 
"What a way to finish off our spring break," said head coach Gabe Winkler. "All boats powered through to go 1-2-3. We got in the cage with the Bruins and came out on top."
 
Oregon State managed the top three times in the V8 with the OSU A crew winning with a time of 6-minutes, 6.7 seconds. The A crew consisted of Hunter Smith, Alex Carlton, Nick Touchette, Henry Hebson, Tyler Gray, Jacoby Wilson, Nils Patrick, and Camron Gharib and coxswained by Ben Garrison.
 
The OSU B crew powered by Emerson Chase, Max McDonald, Roman Pjajka, Jacob Randall, Zach Niedermeyer, Samuel Foltz, Jacob Hart and Nick Taylor, and coxswained by Desiree Odgers, finished close behind with a time of 6-minutes, 8.1-seconds.
 
The third boat for OSU, the C crew, picked up third place with a time of 6-minutes, 29.6-seconds, while UCLA crossed the finish line in fourth place with a time of 6-minutes, 37.5-seconds. Both schools contributed student-athletes to a fifth boat as a combination between the rosters that took fifth place with a time of 7-minutes, 4.2-seconds
 
In the men's Varsity 4+, the Beavers once again came out on top crossing the finish line nearly four seconds ahead of UCLA in 7-minutes, 30.6-seconds. The Bruins finished with a time of 7-minutes, 34.3-seconds.
 
"This reignites the Pac-12 rivalry with UCLA," said Winkler. "Good luck to them for the rest of the season."
