TE AWAMUTU COURIER, THURSDAY, MAY 10, 2012 5 Consolation for NZ crew in B final

Te Awamutu rower Graham Oberlin-Brown has taken some consolation from his New Zealand crew’s dominant win in the B final of the first 2012 World Cup regatta. It was the international debut of the new lightweight four (Oberlin-Brown, Curtis Rapley, James Lassche and Duncan Grant) in Belgrade, Serbia. Although disappointed to be rowed out of the ‘A’ final in the last few metres by the Chinese and French, the Kiwi boat set a ‘must win’ goal for the B final and did exactly that. The Kiwi crew led from the start to finish, increasing its lead every 500 metres and finishing in a time of 5 minutes 59 seconds, the only lightweight four on the day from A or B finals to dip under the benchmark of six minutes. Being seventh overall on their debut, and the top-performing boat yet to qualify for London, left the crew feeling optimistic they are heading in the right direction. TC100512SP05 ‘‘Even though we’re a little disappointed, we NEW ZEALAND lightweight four of (from left) Duncan Grant, Graham Oberlin-Brown, James Lassche and Curtis Rapley on their maintained our main focus to have an even better way to winning the ‘B’ final in Belgrade. race by building on our performances in the heats and repechage, to win the B final,’’ explained three-time lightweight sculling world champion Grant. ‘‘This first World Cup regatta has been a good start in our build-up to the last chance Olympic qualification regatta in Lucerne, Switzerland which starts on May 20. ‘‘But the next two weeks of training in Belgium and Switzerland are going to be critically import- ant for increasing our boat speed and chances at this ‘do or die’ regatta.’’ HEAVYWEIGHTS The heavyweight four of Te Pahu rower Tyson Williams, Jade Uru, Chris Harris and Sean FREE O’Neill also failed to make the cut for the A final at the World Cup regatta, and like the lightweight four had been in contention during the race. Another new-look crew, it held third place until the final 500 metres before being over- hauled in the sprint for the line for the final qualifying spot by the Czech Republic. Greece DRAPE and the Belarusians locked out the top two places. The four — dogged by small injury worries in the build-up — changed its seating line-up for the B final, with Jade Uru moving to the three-seat behind stroke Sean O’Neill.
