1st women's VIII, Women's Other Mays
Winner of Women's Other Mays; 3rd Women's College VIII
Time: 10:50

Pretty solid row, pleasingly tidy and powerful for a first outing of term in an viii. We caught up lots on the red scum and Girton, and rapidly dropped the chasing Nines crew. It'll be interesting to see the results; fingers crossed for a repeat of last year's WOM win! :)

Whooo pennants! We came 3rd of the college viiis, behind Jesus and Caius, and beat Darwin (ahead of us in bumps) by a whopping 56 seconds!

Ooh my first pennant :)
A really good, solid row - felt confident and in control to the finish. No shame to come third to stacked Jesus and Caius boats. After all, we are way down at the head of the Lents 2nd division - bring on bumps!

Not a bad row at all; unsurprisingly a bit rusty for the first race of term but the girls held it together well even when under pressure from a Jesus boat behind. Technique not bad, finishes really improved, the "looking pretty" element is there to a tee ;o) so the main thing to work on is getting power in the water. Very promising for the rest of term.
