FLUVANNA COUNTY, Va., – The No. 4 California women's rowing team swept the first day of the ACC/Pac-12 Invitational at Lake Monticello in Fluvanna County, Virginia Saturday evening.

The races for the V8+, 2V8+ and 2V4+ were all tight as the Bears finished in first by just three to four seconds while the V4+ finished in first comfortably by almost 10 seconds.
