The Club's Results

This was an impressive performance from a crew which has clearly stepped things up over the last couple of weeks. An excellent start saw us move smoothly away from a much bigger Caius I crew, with the advantage stabilising at around half a length. Once Caius found some rhythm they started to gradually chip away at the advantage, but our composure was held until Caius gained parity coming into the Railway Bridge. Thereafter the rowing became just a little frantic s the boys fought hard to stay on terms, with some of the previous smoothness and togetherness lost. Nonetheless this was a valuable racing experience with lots of positives to take away, and given that Caius I went on to make the final this now looks an even more creditable result and bodes very well for Novice Fairbairns.
