This Saturday was the Fullers 4’s Head of the River. We entered three crews into the event:

CUW I - WS2 4+

• Alex Lee (cox), Trinity
• Rachel Smith, (president) Newnham
• Kate Hillier, Jesus
• Celia Bryant, Pembroke
• Nicola Payne, Jesus

CUW II - WS3 4+ (i)

• Laura Sutcliffe (cox), Clare
• Camilla Waugh, St Johns
• Anna Reineke, Darwin
• Jess Stanley, Newnham
• Alla Doubrovina, Trinity

CUW III - WS3 4+ (ii)

• Renae Domashcenz (cox), Darwin
• Hannah Buckley, Queens
• Uli Forster, St. Johns
• Sarah Cochrane, (Lightweight captain),Trinity
• Jen Northover, Emmanuel

All crews performed well, and the results show that all crews concerned seem to have beaten their Oxford equivalents (athough direct comparisons are hard), despite both CUW I and CUW III being involved in a crash and blade clashes with other boats, and CUW II and III having very last minute substitutions.

CUW III came 347 in a time of 22.33.54, 2nd in WS3+ division, missing out on a win by less than a second
CUW I came 353 in a time of 22.37.37
CUW II came 396 in a time of 23.21.66

(Osiris as OUWBC being placed 365, 399, 412 and 503)

Congratulations to all involved - it shows promise for the coming year!
