SAN DIEGO – The San Diego State rowing team officially kicks off its spring slate this Saturday, March 7, when it goes head-to-head with the No. 20 Bruins at the UCLA Marina Aquatic Center in Marina del Rey, Calif. The first of four events is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. on Ballona Creek.
 
The Aztecs are set to compete in four total events and plan to enter one boat in each event. First off on Saturday morning will be the third varsity eight at 9 a.m., followed by the varsity four at 9:15 a.m. The second varsity eight boats get underway at 9:30 a.m. hour, while the event concludes with the varsity eight race set for 9:45 a.m.

UCLA is celebrating their 100th year of existence and Saturday's race is designated as their centenary regatta.
 
The Aztecs begin formal spring competition coming off two events during the fall season as well as two scrimmages in the month of February, first with Minnesota and later against UCSD and USD.
 
Saturday's race is free to the public. Parking is available along Fiji Way, approximately a 10-15 minute walk from the team's boathouse. On the north side of the boathouse, the marina serves as a practice site and racing venue for the Bruins' regattas. Along the south side, Ballona Creek serves as the Bruins' 2000-meter race course.
