To be reduced to 32 entries by Qualifying Races

St. Joe's should be made to qualify (but they won't)

St. Joe's should be made to qualify (but they won't)

I don't disagree with you; but winning Stotes usually gets you a free pass. I really wouldn't be shocked if they're a selected crew.

Yes, hopefully they can figure out Deerfield should be selected well before them. I don't have a ton of faith after Winter Park women were made to qualify last year. At least those mens crews were all at youths (other than maybe Salisbury?)

Salisbury have to race qualifiers

Salisbury is probably as fast or faster than Prep if all lineups are the same as the regular season (which I don't know is the case) feels like the Stewards can't find results past Youths or Stotes

FullSend maybe let your Prep hate go to sleep. Prep and Greenwich traded races all spring, but all your commentary is on Prep. Have fun behind your laptop.

And Greenwich wasn't made to qualify either. I used Prep as a reference point, that's all I meant. Referencing results from 2 months ago doesn't do much for me, especially is Youth rowing. Salisbury was 5s off Deerfield at NEIRA and Prep was 7.5s in the Youths semi. It's the most direct comparison I could find, and my point was moreso I think it's dumb Salisbury is qualifying.

I had similar complaints last year about Park women qualifying when Wilson men didn't. Im guessing they just don't like past Youths and maybe stotes. If you aren't at Youths, they're pretty likely to make you qualify it seems like

From those same results you just shared, RARye was 3rd and just won Youths in pretty commanding fashion.

Salisbury failed to qualify for both the Princess Elizabeth and the Prince Albert.
Deerfield also failed to qualify the Prince Albert 4+

Draw for the Princess Elizabeth

Some insight for the crews that US entries will race

Deerfield v Latymer - Made the A-Final of the National School's Champ 8's finishing 7th in an 8 boat final
Green Lake v Shiplake - 6th in the A-Final at Nat Schools
Dulwich v Marin - 2nd in the B-Final of Nat Schools
Eton v Greenwich - Nat Schools bronze medallists
Bradley v st Joes - 4th at Nat Schools

Eton v Greenwich - Nat Schools bronze medallists
Bradley v st Joes - 4th at Nat Schools

Deerfield v Latymer will be telling. Deerfield is probably the quickest scholastic entry in a minute, but Salisbury failing to qualify would appear not to bode well for a lot of the US crews. I'd take Deerfield, Youths and Nat Schools don't seem to be terribly far off in speed.

Shiplake > Green Lake
Marin > Dulwich
Eton > Greenwich
Radley > St Joes

Tough draws for Greenwich and St Joes in particular. Some draws might have gotten them to Friday, but It'll be a tough go in round 1

How many 19 year old PGs did Salisbury have this year that were ineligible to compete in the PE at Henley? Have to assume that their 8 that failed to qualify has a different lineup from what they raced this spring.

Comparing the line up at HRR with the one at NEIRA Salisbury has a couple of guys from their 1V and the rest from the 2V

Thanks for the work Fats, good information. Two reasons to go Henley: to race/win OR to see/measure/develop. Looks like the latter for Salisbury.

Any idea on Deerfield?
