SAN FRANCISCO (May 19, 2023) – The Pac-12 Conference announced Friday that Washington State women's rowing senior Madeleine Pollard has been named to the 2023 All-Pac-12 team. It is the first all-conference honor for Pollard.
Pollard rowed in the stroke position in Washington State's first varsity eight boat in every race this season. She guided the Cougars to a Fawley Cup win over Gonzaga to give WSU its 28th victory against the Bulldogs over the last 31 Fawley Cup races. Pollard helped the Cougars earn a sixth-place finish in the 1V8 race at the 2023 Pac-12 Rowing Championships. She also helped Washington State earn votes in the CRCA/Pocock Poll each week of the 2023 season.
The senior is from Henley, United Kingdom and she has been a four-year member of the WSU women's rowing program. Pollard recently graduated from Washington State with a Bachelor's Degree in Kinesiology, holding a perfect 4.0 grade point average. She is a three-time Pac-12 Spring Academic Honor Roll recipient and a two-time College Rowing Coaches Association (CRCA) National Scholar Athlete.
Members of the All-Pac-12 Rowing Team are based upon each team's finish in the first varsity eight race at the Pac-12 Championship, which was held last weekend at Dexter Lake in Lowell, Oregon.
