Results Summary from VLC/UJ Regatta

In wet but otherwise calm conditions, Team Bishop Bavin maintained their current run of form by winning medal positions in 15 of the 22 "A" events entered and 11 of the 17 "B" events.
The medal tally in the "A" events included 7 Gold, 3 Silver and 7 Bronze.
Crews in the "B" events secured 3 Firsts, 5 Seconds and 5 Thirds.
Importantly, the coaching team used the opportunity to test some new crew combinations and entered a number of events for the first time.
Apart from U16 & Open pairs, U16 girls & boys quads competed for the first time this season and showed signs that they can compete for positions in the A finals at SA Champs.
Our Open Boys 1st V111, also took part in their first ever regatta, coming a credible 4th ahead of established crews from St. Johns & Parktown. The closeness of the times between the crews suggests that medal positions at SA Champs are still up for grabs.
