Clare Novice Regatta - 25, 27, 29 November 1997

Men's Cup

Churchill's Novice A crew easily accounted for Wolfson in the opening round, and then beat Jesus soundly in round 2. The quarter-final match-up with CCAT produced another strong Churchill victory. The semi-final contest with Selwyn was as exciting as it was controvesial. Selwyn slewed off their station on the start, and the crews' blades clashed heavily. Churchill, believing the race would be stopped, momentarily easied, but as Selwyn carried on, it became clear that there wasn't going to be a restart. Churchill resumed a length and a half down, and, after a great row, cut the deficit to a length at the finish. Churchill protested that the incident at the start had unfairly hampered their progress, and the officials initially disqualified Selwyn, and then reconsidered and ordered a rerow. Second time around, Churchill won an incident-free race convincingly by two lengths. The final against LMBC was delayed as darkness fell, and was held on the Tuesday. In a high quality contest between the two evenly matched crews, LMBC won by one length.

Round 2:          Churchill A  defeated  Jesus A
Quarter-finals:   Churchill A  defeated  CCAT A

Round 2:          CCAT                 defeated  Churchill Pink Lady

Men's Plate

Churchill Novice B crew scored a terrific come-from-behind win over CCAT B, and then dominated Sidney Sussex B in round 2. They raced stroke for stroke with Jesus B in the quarter-finals before Jesus pushed clear for the victory. Churchill Novice C beat Peterhouse B in the first round, but lost to 1st & 3rd B in round 2. Novice D scored a comical victory over Trinity Hall C in round 1. Trinity Hall made a good start and pulled ahead, but then their cox veered across the river into D's path. The marshals blew whistles to tell Trinity Hall's cox to get back on his side of the river, but the Trinity Hall rowers mistook this for a signal that they had crossed the finish line. They easied and began to celebrate until Novice D crashed into their stern. Trinity Hall was disqualified. Novice D were pipped at the finish by LMBC D in round 2.
