Y Quad Cities Rowing secured gold in the women’s U23 quadruple sculls following a tight time trial yesterday. The boat, rowed by Ella Saunders, Alexa Mueller, Ela Ersan, and Delaney Evans, crossed the finish line at 6:51:470. Like the time trial, it was not an easy win, with Conshohocken Rowing Center Inc. crossing at 6:52:799 to earn silver. Unlike the time trial, Oklahoma City High Performance Center finished nearly 10 seconds after Y Quad Cities, earning them fourth in the race.
Another close call came in the women’s U23 single sculls, with Ana Holtey taking gold for Ready Set Row LLC. Holtey won the event with a time of 7:56:826, beating U23 National Team Athlete Annelise Hahl by just under three seconds. Holtey previously won a bronze medal in the women’s quadruple sculls at the 2022 USRowing Youth National Championships. Hahl also competed in the events Thursday and Friday and took gold in the women’s youth single sculls.
There was a common theme of close calls on the course today, continuing with the men’s U23 four. Y Quad Cities once again took a gold medal with a time of 6:11:767. William Sharis, Nikhil Ramaraju, Keval Wagher, and Tristan Wakefield beat two Mendota Development Camp boats for the top spot. Y Quad Cities ended the day nine-for-nine in medals and events.
