This is the video of the UC Irvine Rowing Team.UC Irvine has sent six rowers to represent the United States of America in the Olympics. These oarsmen include: Bruce Ibbettson, Bob Ernst (coached), Brad Lewis, Curtis Flemming, Cathy Thaxton-Tippett, and Greg Springer. All of these athletes have stemmed from the program here at UCI founded by olympic gold medalist Duvall Hecht who has returned to coach the varsity men. Just like you, all of these athletes began rowing for UCI. We are competitive on a national level, the men finished 4th this past year at nationals in Gainseville, Georgia, and the women finished 3rd in the PCRC's in Sacramento. We race teams like UCLA, UCSB, UCD, UCSD, Michigan, Purdue, Notre Dame, etc... in locations which line the west coast and even go as far east as Georgia.The varsity coach is an olympic gold medalist and has led many crews to many successful seasons and is active in the team's development.
