Jack Dorney of Shandon won the junior 18 single sculls at the Irish Open and All Ireland Junior Regatta at the National Rowing Centre in Cork today. His nearest rival was James O’Donovan of Castleconnell. Both represented Ireland this season and both are junior again for the 2019 season.
Aoife Lynch of Lee was the top junior woman, just ahead of Lauren O’Brien of Castleconnell.
The best women’s open pair of the day was the UCC/Skibbereen combination of Tara Hanlon and Niamh Casey.
