#Rowing: Hannah Scott is the Afloat Rower of the Month for February. The Bann girl topped the rankings at the Ireland Assessment. Her time of 25 minutes and 32 seconds for the six kilometre course at Lough Rynn in Leitrim gave her a remarkable mark of 89.10 per cent of projected world best time for a junior woman over this distance.
Scott was part of the Ireland junior quadruple which won a bronze medal at the Coupe de la Jeunesse in 2016. In that crew, she was partnered by Lucy Taylor, Fiona Chestnutt and Margaret Cremen.
Rower of the Month awards: The judging panel is made up of Liam Gorman, rowing correspondent of The Irish Times, and David O'Brien, editor of Afloat magazine.
