Rowing Round–up: Puspure Fifth in Belgrade, Keohane Wins in Ghent, Black and Cassells in the Hunt
#ROWING – After an intense weekend of international competition for Irish rowers Sanita Puspure finished fifth in the A Final of the single scull at the World Cup Regatta in Belgrade. Puspure tasted this level of competition in the single scull for the first time. Claire Lambe finished fifth in the A Final of the lightweight single sculls at the World Cup.
John Keohane Won the Men's Single Scull at Ghent Rowing Regatta but he was only one of a collection of Irish winners.
Chris Black and Joel Cassells did themselves no harm in the hunt for selection on the Ireland team for the World Junior Championships when they won their final at Munich Junior Regatta.

Irish crews had a good first day at the Fisa World Coastal Rowing Championships in Bari in Italy. John Keohane, who is defending his crown in the men’s single, qualified through the heats for tomorrow’s A Final, as did Monika Dukarska and Sheila Clavin in the women’s single. The men’s coxed quadruple from Kilmacsimon saw their hopes disappear in an instant when their bowman broke an oar in their heat. They came home down the field with just three men rowing, but went on to win their C Final last evening.
