We have officially hit the half-way mark of Fall Quarter and the team is fully stocked with two Varsity 8+ and three Novice 8+ boats. The crew just returned from racing at the San Diego Fall Classic and learned the basics of racing and race management.Â
Full apologies for the truly last-minute notice/reminder on the following events…
Newport Chase – Saturday, November 18th (7:30 am Open Men, 7:45 am Novice Men)
If you are in Newport Beach this morning come out to Lido Bridge and support the crew by yelling at the top of your lungs! GO IRVINE! The crew will take on Orange Coast College, Long Beach State, UC Santa Barbara for a timed chase around Lido Island.

Budge Collins II – Boat Christening – Saturday, November 18th – UCI Boathouse
After racing has concluded we encourage you to stop by Shellmaker Island to watch Budge Collins christen our 2017 racing shell. This boat was purchased off-lease from the Senior World Championships. The Romanian Senior National Team knocked the defending Olympic Champions out of the A final in Sarasota this past month. We lucked out and got one of the best shells in the world and it’s all thanks to our combined alumni support and seat dedications. A special surprise is in store for any and all contributors to the new shell!
