\nCal’s top boat will compete for the Jessop-Whittier Cup while the 2V8+ will participate in the Jackie Ann Stitt Hungness Trophy race. The Bears’ 3V8+ is slated to race in the women’s open event, the Carley Copley Cup. The first varsity four will partake in the Karen Plumleigh Cortney Cup while the 2V4+ will be in the Women’s Collegiate B4+ event.

\nThe Bears will face top crews from around the nation in all five events, including top-10 teams in Texas and Washington in addition to other West coast schools including USC, UC San Diego and UCLA, among others.
