Alcalá 1990

oat racing originated in the 1700's in England. It was in part due to Thomas Doggett who offered a tro- phy, the Doggett Coat and Badge, to the winner of a race held on the River Thames. Later, the regatta was incorporated into the sporting events at many universities. The first race took place in 1829 between Oxford and Cambridge Universities. In the United States, Harvard and Yale were the first regatta competitors in 1852. Since this time, universities all over the

U.S. have been in regatta competitions. USD is no exception. The Men's Crew team won the Cal Cup at the San Diego Crew Classic and because of this, they were invited to compete in the Copey Cup against UCLA in the West and Harvard in the East. The Women's team is equally as spirited, dedicated, and apt to greatness. Congratulations to team captains Todd Miccio and Jennifer LeFere for making USD proud!
