Keogh and Dukarska Stay in Front at Ireland Trial

29th March 2019

#Rowing: The second session of the Ireland Trial at the National Rowing Centre gave a number of crews a chance to confirm their good form. Aifric Keogh and Monika Dukarska won again in the pair, followed in by Aileen Crowley and Emily Hegarty and the under-23 pair of Eimear Lambe and Claire Feerick. Conditions were more difficult, with a cross wind.

The men’s pair of Mark O’Donovan and Shane O’Driscoll, also won, and Rory O’Neill of Castleconnell was the fastest junior single sculler, reprising his win in the morning session.
