National Selection Regatta #2

Thursday: Today is the first day of the second National Selection Regatta (NSR).  I believe that the winners at NSR #2 will get to represent the United States in the first World Cup, which will be held in Munich, Germany, May 27th-29th.  NSR #1 was important, but it is mostly used to see where you stand relative to the rest of the field.  NSR #2 will tell you if you get actually get to go somewhere and represent the United States.

Kristin Hedstrom is racing in the Lightweight Women's Double Sculls (2x) with Julie Nichols, the winner of the Lightweight Women's 1x at NSR#1.  Miranda Cullins, my friend from camp at Wisconsin, is racing in the Women's Double Sculls (2x) in the USRowing Training Center Boat H.  The time trials took place this morning, and results are posted.

This afternoon, Miranda will be racing in the heats.  Kristin will racing in the semi-finals tomorrow morning.

Help me in cheering on Kristin and Miranda!
