SACRAMENTO, Calif.- The second-ranked California men captured their 12th Pac-10 title and the seventh in eight years, while the defending Pac-10 Champion and second-ranked California women won their second consecutive Conference crown Sunday at the Pacific-10 Conference Rowing Championships at Lake Natoma in Rancho Cordova, Calif.

The California women won two individual titles -- the varsity eight and second varsity eight. Washington finished second behind the Bears in team points, placing fourth in the women's varsity eight but taking first in the women's novice eight race. USC finished third, its highest finish ever in the Pac-10 Championship, with 53 points. The sixth-seed Women of Troy took first in the varsity four over the second-seeded Washington Huskies. The Bruins followed in fourth with 49 points, Stanford placed fifth with 43 and Washington State took sixth with 38 points. Rounding out the top-8 are Oregon State with 33 and Oregon with four points, respectively.

The Golden Bear men finished strong as they took the varsity eight grand final, just ahead of fourth-ranked Washington to take first place honors in the team standings. Washington took second-place, taking first in the second varsity eight, second in the freshman/novice eight and second in the varsity eight. Stanford, after placing fourth in eight consecutive championships, finished tied for third for its highest finish since 1997 with Oregon State at 42 points. UCLA finished fifth with 34 points, followed by Washington State in sixth with 26 and Oregon with 5 in seventh place.
