Now is your time to shine

     A fellow rower and coach of mine still says to me, "remember all those things you said you would do as an alum".

     Now is our time to show support. Lets all try to make the races and show the support that the WSU Men's oarsmen and coxswains deserve for their hard work.





Please RSVP

     As Cougar Crew Days near, we will be taking RSVP's in order to see how many people are coming (especially to the banquet). This will give us a better estimate of the attendees and help us prepare the events and festivities this year and the years to come. Please, when you RSVP, let us know how many people (including you and guests) are planning to attend. Thank you for your help!
