The Tasmanian State Club Rowing Championships were held last weekend and our Year 10 to 12 rowers had a very successful event.
There were many fantastic performances including:
Most notably our Girls squads won all four Girls Underage Eight State Championships, U17, U19, U21, and U23. This is the first time this has ever been accomplished by any school or club.
Our Year 10 Girls squad also won the U17 Single Scull, Double Scull and Coxed Four and our Senior Girls the U19 Pair, Coxless Four and Coxed Four.
Our Boys squads have continued to improve with competitive performances in the U19 Single Scull, Pair and Coxed Four.
As a team, Scotch Oakburn College finished the weekend as the top ranked school overall.
As we head into the Head of the River at Lake Barrington, we wish all our rowers the very best.
