The No. 2 California men's rowing team will make the cross-country trip for the premier Princeton Invitational hosted by the Tigers at Lake Carnegie in Princeton, New Jersey, this Saturday. The morning session will begin at 5 a.m. PT/8 a.m. ET with the afternoon session set for 10 a.m. PT/1 p.m. ET. The races will be live streamed here and live results can be accessed at this link.
 
The Golden Bears' first through third varsity eights will be in the company of other top programs from around the nation, including No. 4 Princeton, No. 5 Brown, No. 7 Stanford, No. 9 Syracuse, No. 10 Pennsylvania, No. 11 Yale and No. 19 Columbia. Cal will take on Brown, Yale and Syracuse in the morning session. In the afternoon, the Bears will square off with the host team in a dual.
 
Cal enters the weekend with an unblemished record in 2026, having swept its races in the first four events of the season. Most recently, the Bears notched wins over No. 15 Wisconsin, No. 19 Temple, No. 21 Oregon State, No. 24 UC San Diego and No. 25 Santa Clara at the California Classic hosted on Cal's home course last weekend. The Bears' varsity eight posted the top time of 5:34.4 to defeat the Badgers' top entry. The V8+ nearly matched its previous time against Temple's V8+, finishing in 5:34.7 in the afternoon session, capping an impressive outing that earned MPSF Varsity Eight of the Week honors.
