GB National Schools Regatta

Post by fatsculler »

St Paul’s School totally dominated the boys Champ 8’s yesterday, winning the final by a massive 15 seconds. In tricky cross-headwind conditions they produced a time of 6:02. In silver were Radley College with Shiplake College in bronze. St Paul’s will be the overwhelming favourites to win the PE at Henley and complete a remarkable quadruple: Head of the Charles, Schools Head of the River, National Schools & Henley.
7 of the St Paul’s crew are headed to universities in the US.
