Additional Information
On the way to the start of the CH8+ processional, Oli Knight was injured [dislocated rib] and so the crew had to change at the last minute. This significantly affected their performance although they did very well to win their semi-final and still race to a fourth place in the final without their best man. The crew are very quick, surprisingly so, and rumours were that they were going faster than last year’s eight had ever gone before National Schools. They’ve got three returners from the PE finalist crew from last year [Oli Knight, Albert Mitchell, Sam Gillingham] and they’ll be looking to go one step further this year. Their progress in the competition will depend upon the length of Ollie Knight’s recovery and their ability to train around that.
My Prediction
St Edward’s look to have the easier side of the draw and I’d expect them to progress to the Saturday at least. They should come up against Hampton at that stage- I’m going to be bold and predict them to make the final.
