CUBC Dev Squad impresses at National Championships

With a squad including winning Blues and CUBC’s Development Squad athletes, the British Rowing National Championships was a successful showing for the Club.

The weekend commenced with CUBC’s two Development Squad eights dominating the Club eights, finishing first and second with a 13 second gap back to the third placed crew from Northwich RC.

On Sunday, returning Blues Jenna Armstrong, Arden Berlinger, Carina Graf, and Gemma King combined to take second in Championship 4-s just behind Thames RC’s Town Challenge crew including CUBC Blue Rosa Millard.

The Club’s coxless 4 won a bronze medal behind Warwick and Norwich in an excellent race.

Splitting up for the Club Coxed 4, the Development Squad placed 1st and 5th after just a few outings together.

The weekend was capped by a strong bronze medal from CUBC Blue Gemma King, who stepped into a double scull with her sister Catherine.
