April 10, 2004

SALEM, Ore. (Apr. 10) ­ The women's varsity four of Seattle Pacific University remained unbeaten while the men's crews picked up three wins in four races at the Governor's Cup Regatta on the Willamette River Saturday.

SPU went to 4-0 on the season and won for the 12th time in 14 outings, dispatching its junior varsity teammates and Lewis & Clark with considerable open water in ideal conditions.

The men got back-to-back wins out of their lightweight four, first in that category by nearly two boat-lengths and then the junior varsity open race by 10 seconds. Winning their fourth race in a row was the novice four. The varsity four was third behind Lewis & Clark and Humboldt State.

Next week, the Falcons row at the Blue Heron redwood Sprints in Eureka, Ca.
