Peter Brevick is in his ninth year as the head coach of the Washington State University Crew. In his three years at the helm, the team has steadily improved and continues to build toward championship contention.

Brevick comes to Pullman from Oklahoma City, OK, where he has spent 5 years working with the Oklahoma City Boathouse Foundation (OKCBF) and the OKC Riversport Junior Rowing program.

Peter joined the OKCBF in the summer of 2012 as Boatman for all programs, and soon took on additional roles working with national rowing adaptive camps and the junior rowing program. In 2014 he added work with the OKC National High Performance Center, which led to coaching the USA Lightweight Men’s Pair at the 2014 World Championships in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Upon returning to Oklahoma City, Brevick began coaching the OKC Riversport Novice Boys program. Highlights from the 2014-15 season included the first ever Boys points trophy for OKC at the SWEAT erg regatta, as well as wins in three of the four novice events at the US Rowing Central Youth Regional Championships. In the fall of 2015, Brevick continued with OKC Riversport, moving to the Varsity Boys Coach. Notable accomplishments from his first season with the Varsity Boys include a 4th place finish at Youth Nationals in the Pair, as well as sending two athletes to the USRowing Junior National Team High Performance camp. His last season in Oklahoma City had multiple team best performances, highlighted by finishing 13th at the Head of the Charles in the Youth Eights, and 2nd at Youth Nationals in the Four.

Brevick began rowing in 2002 at Washington State University, and began coaching at WSU as a volunteer assistant in 2007. After working in other capacities stateside and overseas for three years, he returned to WSU to coach the Novice Men for the 2011-2012 season.

Scott joined Washington State University as a junior college transfer from Pasadena, California, in 1972. Initially invited to join the rowing team that fall, he declined, but accepted a second invitation at the start of his senior year and became part of Cougar Crew. In 2022, after retiring as a city finance director and certified public accountant, he reconnected with his former coach, Ken Struckmeyer, to explore ways to support the team. That conversation led to a meeting with Coaches Struckmeyer and Brevick and the start of his ongoing volunteer role with Cougar Crew. Since then, Scott has assisted with practices on the Snake River and at regattas in Spokane, Oregon, California, and Tennessee, while also collaborating with University Recreation to strengthen the team’s financial operations. He and his wife live in California and spend the fall and spring seasons in Pullman to support the team.

Evan is from Olympia, Washington, and began rowing in high school with Olympia Area Rowing, where he first developed his competitive experience in the sport. He plans to continue into a professional career in construction management after graduating this upcoming spring.
