A trip to the sweet sixteen in men’s basketball and successful first seasons for men’s and women’s cross country were just a few of the accomplishments recognized at the this year’s athletic banquet.

The men’s basketball team finished 25-7, won the Cal Pac tournament for the second year in a row, and advanced to the Sweet 16 in the national tournament for the first time ever. The Keelhaulers defeated four nationally ranked teams and saw four players receive all-league honors.

Women’s basketball also placed four all-conference performers and reached the conference semifinals.

For the second year in a row, the sailing team won the Port of L.A. Harbor Cup. The rugby squad also competed in the national tournament.

The Crew team has a new building that was completed recently to house their shells and ergs, including a new eight-man shell.

Two hundred athletes from 12 different sports were honored at the banquet. Lonnie
