Triathlon Club
Membership Info

The triathlon racing season is predominantly in the Spring semester. Our members come from very diverse backgrounds, including students with more swimming experience, biking experience, or running experience. The triathlon team competes in the West Coast Collegiate Triathlon Conference (WCCTC).

Competition

Triathlon Club has 4-6 weekends of racing per season. Races are located throughout California, to include UCLA, Stanford, Cal Poly, and UCSD. All members will benefit from team oriented training, development of skills, and sponsorships to aid in the purchasing of equipment.
