With 2012 being an Olympic year, the Trojans lost some talented pieces from their 2011 roster. Iskra Angelova ( Bulgaria), Ivana Filipo- vic (Serbia) and Maria Wilgotsson (Sweden) were key contributors o n last year’s Varsity Eight and each has returned to their native country to train for the summer games. Despite the loss, Babraj expects their posi- tions to be filled with hungry and capable replacements. “We lost three members from the Varsity Eight which is a hit to our team, but at the same time opens the door for some of the less expe- rienced athletes from the other boats,” said Babraj. “If they make that step, and it looks like some of them will, our team will progress nicely. “We are still in the process finalizing lineups and the beginning of this season may be a little slower, but if all the pieces come together by Pac- 12’s we should be in full swing.” Last year’s co-captain Dionne Licudine returns to coxswain’s seat along with senior starboard and 2012 co-captain Helen Tinkus to guide USC’s No. 1 boat.

It is good for both sides. In their absence, it opens the door for others to improve here at USC and when they return, in the addition to a solid recruiting class it could create a nice chemistry for us. This year is a very unknown, but if everything clicks, we should be very competitive. We want this year to be a bridge to even higher performance next year while building on the successes of last season. “ Additionally, as Babraj points out, having athletes in the Olympics reflects very highly on the caliber of USC’s rowing program and could boost recruiting as well. “To have Ivana (Filipovic) on a big screen with the world watching and a USC logo on her back is a great recruiting poster for our pro- gram,” said Babraj. “We would love to have them all here this season, USCTrojans.com 3 Coaching Staff

Zenon Babraj Success however, is no stranger to Babraj. In just his first season, he gave USC rowing fans a glimpse of what was to come. The Women of Head Coach/Director of Rowing Troy fielded three competitive boats at the 2003 Pac-10 Champion- ships and the Varsity Eight earned its fifth straight at-large bid to the 10th Season NCAA Championships. At those championships, USC placed sixth in the field; a finish that ranked second only to their program-best fourth- place finish in 2001. In 2004, USC’s Varsity Eight returned to the NCAA Champion- ships for its sixth-straight appearance. Then in 2005, the Varsity Four clinched the Pac-10 Championship, and the Varsity Eight finished third. These key performances allowed the Trojans to qualify for its first ever team bid to the NCAA Championships. While the Varsity Eight finished 12th in its event, the Trojans capped their first team trip to the national championship regatta with an 11th-place team finish overall.

USCTrojans.com 29 USC vs. UCLA The Crosstown Gauntlet The battle for the Crosstown Gauntlet is a year-long all-sports competition between historic crosstown rivals USC and UCLA which began in the 2001-02 season. USC and UCLA compete against each other in 18 sports. Five points are awarded (10 points in football, men’s and women’s basketball and women’s volleyball) to the winner of each sport’s season series or, for those sports that do not meet head-to-head (cross country, men’s and women’s golf), the team that placed higher in the conference championship. In the first nine years, the battle for the Gauntlet has been true to the long-standing competitive rivalry between USC and UCLA. The Trojans captured the inaugural trophy in 2002, the trophy changed hands each year until three straight USC wins in 2008, 2009 and 2010. The annual win- ner is presented with a 150-pound pewter-gilded trophy. The trophy features a gauntlet and is engraved with each year’s winner.
