Testing Results

The big boys from the Eight performed like they deserve to be in the boat which will make it very difficult for someone outside of the 2007 lineup to crack it.....maybe only 1 possibility and that would be due to injury.
For the rest of the squad there were some guys who were able to separate themselves apart from guys who have been close to them and this will only help to impress the coaching staff to get a shot at the selection for the four.
All in all there were some extremely good erg scores that illustrate to me the raw power that the Eight possesses. This is something that our coach is continually trying to utilize on the water so that we don't take our power for granted but that we are able to transfer all of this power onto the oar.

Selection will likely be starting in about 2 weeks or less....we will be having a team meeting soon to discuss exactly what April holds.
You can definitely tell that the pressure is mounting amongst the group. Remember, Olympic dreams are on the line here and this is just the beginning!!
