VANCOUVER, Wash. – Seattle University women's rowing went head-to-head with University of Portland in dual meet Saturday morning, taking first place in a tightly contested Varsity 8+ race on Vancouver Lake.

The Redhawk V8+ crew bested the Pilots with a time of 6:57.1, 14 seconds faster than their finish last Sunday in a quad meet in Eastern Washington. Portland finished in 7:00.6.

"We had some great racing this morning," said Head Coach Jenny Park. "The Varsity 8+ has made some great gains over the last week and it really showed today."

Portland won the 2V8+ and V4+ races. Seattle U's 2V8+ time of 7:29.8 was more than 10 seconds faster than its last outing. The V4+ crew earned a finishing time of 9:06.4.

Next on the docket for the Redhawks is a dual meet against Seattle Pacific. The teams will race on Saturday, April 24 at the Fremont Canal in Seattle. The race will be open to the general public.
