Man Squad - Melbourne Rowing Club

This week I follow my lazy tradition of throwing back to a regatta that's just happened. Trust me, if you saw the content that I still have to work with, you'd understand completely...

Wendouree 2021 saw four members of Man Squad make the trip to Ballarat to compete. While most of the entries involved smaller boats, the highlight of the day was the coxed D Quad final.

With roughly 250m to go, a competent Albert Park College crew had created a noticeable lead. However, guided by Frances Graham in the cox seat, the crew of Aman Sideek, Matt Bennett, Patrick Welham, and Timothy Crooks produced a late blitz to surge across the finish line first by 0.2 seconds.

Thankfully the Wendouree regatta is live streamed, so there was footage of the race. Additional photos will be posted in the comments.

Here's to a successful win boys, may our good fortunes continue for the rest of the season!
