Last week, the team travelled to Clinton Lake, Illinois to take on Minnesota and Illinois in a tri meet. The team took two varsity 8s, two novice 8s, and a varsity double.
In a solid showing, all four of the 8s won against their respective boats. The 1V beat both Minnesota and Illinois by open water. In a come from behind victory, the second Varsity 8 won by a length against the Minnesota 2V and 3V, and finished closely behind the Illinois 1V. Both novice boats were able to beat their respective Minnesota and Illinois competition, and the varsity double placed 2nd in a race against three Minnesota doubles.
The team was happy to get a win and some shirts, and is now training hard in the final weeks before heading to ACRAs.
