Connamara Awards Trophy a Chicago Sprints Rowing Regatta

At last week’s Chicago Sprints Rowing Regatta, I had the pleasure of awarding the championship trophy for the Junior Mens Coxed 4 to Twin Cities Youth Rowing Club. It was a hard fought race by TCYRC over a very strong team from St. Louis Rowing Club. TCYRC was behind by a canvas with 200 meters to go and overtook St. Louis at the finish. Three cheers for TCYRC!
