State Champs Wrap - March 1st
Congratulations to Jackson Morrish who last Sunday morning took out the Bronze medal in the U19 male single sculls. He was described as having very clean rowing, clearly evidenced by the amount of water in his boat as he crossed the finish line.
The regatta was abondoned by midday due increasingly deteriorating rowing conditions. A contingent of 25 HRC members, including 6 of the Youth Development squad got lots of practice in loading and unloading the HRC trailer.
