Big Crowd Treated to Top Performances from Zag Rowing

SPOKANE, Wash. - The Gonzaga men's and women's rowing team split victories with Washington State in the varsity boats in front of program alums and fans at the Head of the Spokane on Saturday on the Spokane River.

The Zag men took on WSU for the second time in two weeks and again took a win in the Varsity 8+ boat. GU won by 12 seconds over the 5,000-meter race in a time of 15 minutes, 58 seconds. The time was a marked improvement from last week's two-second win over the Cougars. WSU then came back in the Varsity 4+ to take a five-second win over Gonzaga in a time of 17:28.

"It was a great day to be a Zag rower with all the alums and parents there," men's head coach Dan Gehn said. "I thought our 8+ boat rowed very well and hats off to WSU in the 4+. They had a great race."

On the women's side, WSU managed a win by just seven seconds in the Varsity 8+ with a time of 16:39 to GU's 16:46. The Zags raced their A and B boats against each other in the Varsity 4+ with the second boat taking a 31-second victory.

"I thought our ladies did a great job today, and I'm really excited about the progress we've had," women's head coach Glenn Putyrae said. "I'm really looking forward to the next six months. Today was a great festival of rowing for our program. It gives our team great perspective of the program that's been built here and the excitement we have to look forward to."

The teams will be back out on the Spokane River on Sunday morning for the Class Day Races beginning at 9 a.m. The next competition for the both teams will be the Head of the Lake on Sunday Nov. 2 in Seattle, Wash.
