Pilots Cap the Fall Schedule with a Trip to the Head of the Lake

PORTLAND, Ore. --- The Portland Pilots women's rowing teams wraps up its fall schedule on Sunday morning when they travel north to Seattle for the 39th annual Head of the Lake. The Pilots will race a trio of eights while in the Emerald City.

"We're ready for last race of the fall season," Portland head coach Pasha Spencer said. "This will give us some input for winter training."

The annual event, co-hosted by the UW and Lake Washington Rowing Club, features a three-mile course, which starts in Lake Union, northeast of Gasworks Park, crosses Portage Bay, runs through the Montlake Cut and finishes in Union Bay of Lake Washington, just east of Conibear Shellhouse.
