December 05, 2024 | Men's Rowing
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Oregon State men's rowing has officially joined the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation, it was announced on Thursday.
"We have worked together with the other west coast rowing teams to create a great championship with the MPSF," Head Coach Gabe Winkler said. "This will create a very competitive regatta, pitting all the strongest teams in the west together on one stage to cap off the regular season in May. I am excited for how this will help grow the sport and show off a very high level of racing."
OSU is joined by California, Gonzaga, San Diego, Santa Clara Stanford, UC San Diego and reining IRA National Champions Washington in the MPSF's inaugural season, making men's rowing the conference's 15th sponsored sport.
Last season, OSU finished in third place at the Pac-12 Championships, a result which saw the second eight reach the 2024 national 'C' final, also marking the 12th-consecutive season that the Beavers have competed in the IRA Championship.
The inaugural MPSF Men's Rowing Championship is scheduled for May 17-18, 2025, at Lake Natoma in Gold River, Calif.
OUR MISSION:
Oregon State Athletics strives to Build Excellent Authentic Visionary Student-Athletes (Go BEAVS).
