Trinity in Close Finish at Henley Royal Regatta

28th June 2017

#Rowing: Trinity’s Prince Albert crew rowed well but lost out in a very tight race at Henley Royal Regatta today. Trinity and American crew Deerfield Academy overlapped throughout the race. Liam Hayes, Josh Norton, Andre Liadov, strokeman Paddy Moreau and cox Conor Keogh were level with the US crew in the middle of the race. The bigger US unit  moved and eked out a half-length lead. Despite a determined finish by Trinity, Deerfield stayed in front and won by five feet.
