Varsities Whitewater & Freestyle

<< < (3/4) > >>

Peter O'Sullivan:
Put me down for long distance, freestyle and whitewater.

Diarmuid:
But Peter you forgot your favorite sport!

Steven Mul:
Whitewater trials were held today in Wicklow on pretty much the exact course that it will be run on for varsities.

Times were as follows:

Niall Finch: 8.01
Cormac Roche: 8.05
Steven Mulrooney: 8.13
Diarmuid Ryan: 8.20
Marie Harrington: 8.33
Derv McAuley: 8.59

So this means the provisional team will be Niall, Cormac, Steven and Marie.

Diarmuid:
Just to confirm, the course was the upriver side of Trooperstown bridge to the eddy at the to of the run in to Jackson's (the eddy where ahh BoaterX usually starts from).
Congrats to the team!

Diarmuid:
And to clarify, the whitewater team was selected based on those present and based on the fastest times on the day. The team had to contain both sexes so the fastest boy and girl were selected. Then the next placed competitors were selected by their times.

Each competitor had one run of the course with other competitors who had already completed or had yet to complete their run providing rescue.

Also a massive thank you to Zog who acted as timekeeper and to Bill who provided rescue.
