Bob Hillen Cup

Hillen was a coxswain at UCLA from 1935-1938. He then returned to UCLA in 1940 as an assistant coach before becoming the co-head coach in 1946. While at UCLA, he helped start USC's crew program in 1947. In 1948, he came over to USC as the program's first head coach, until retiring in 1990.
