Lents 2015 – Day 4, Final Day
What a crazy end to the week! Churchill won the Marconi cup by a convincing margin (total of 40 points, an aggregate of +10 across Churchill’s 3 crews).

Lents 2015, Day 3
Fantastic results from Day 3, leaving Churchill top of the Marconi Cup table leading the pack by a significant margin! Bumps all round for the Churchill crews, with M1 bumping twice to reclaim their place in the top Men’s Division! The crews have worked hard for this and these bumps have certainly not been easy […]
Day 2 Lents 2015
Day 2 Race Results W1 Result: Bump! Chasing Lady Margaret W1, chased by Girton W1 W1 had a strong bump today, holding LMBC at 1/2 length from 1st post around the corners, an almost bump on Ditton, resulted in interesting evasive action from the LMBC cox.

May Bumps Day 3, 2014
Crew: M1 Result: Bumped Girton I Today we engaged in a little fun with Girton. Clearly being the faster crew we waited until we had half a length of overlap on the reach before smashing into their 7 man’s blade at the catch, I’ve been told a fairly hilarious crab ensued on their part. Gladly […]
May Bumps Day 2, 2014
Crew: M1 Result: Rowed over Despite gaining on all the crews in front of us and going for the heroic overbump on Fitz, after Peterhouse caught Girton at Ditton, we had to settle for a row over in the end. Tomorrow will be better. Dan Jones, Men’s Captain Crew: W1 Result: Bumped Trinity Hall I […]
