The Sacramento State Men's Rowing Team is a collegiate sports club representing the Sacramento State University in rowing. The program is a club sport, not affiliated with the university athletic department and is governed by elected club officers. Started in 1984 by students with head coach Steve Gallant, the crew is a member of the Western Intercollegiate Rowing Association (WIRA), whose participants are mostly non-Pac-10 schools on the West Coast.
As part of WIRA, the team has won multiple conference championships in the Varsity 8 and also had championship boats in several other events.[citation needed]
The team consists of male or female athletes and male or female coxswains. The team competes against schools such as Stanford, UC Davis, UC Berkeley, UC San Diego, Gonzaga, CSU Chico, CSU Stanislas, CSU Monterey Bay, and all other west coast institutions with rowing programs. In 2021, club transitioned to offer both men's and women's rowing within the program.
