 1980
A veteran 1980 lightweight varsity went undefeated, their closest race coming in the semi-finals of the Pac-10's where they defeated a favored OSU squad by a half length.
A fundamental change had developed during and after the win at the Pac-10's in 1980, and there was no going back for the team or for Erickson.
Once at Henley the crew was unhappy with the Carbocraft they were rowing, Erickson finally landing an Empacher after the Thursday races, the coach "waving money" (and throwing in some highly coveted Dreissigacker oars) at the first crew to lose who rowed one of these coveted crafts.
