October 01, 2022 | Women's Rowing
BURNABY, B.C., Canada – Washington's Nikki Martincic and McKenna Bryant won the 4,000-meter head race and later finished third in the 250-meter sprint to highlight the UW women's rowing team's performance Sunday at the Burnaby Lake Small Boat Regatta.
The regatta featured both long-distance and short sprint races for single and double sculls and for pairs. All UW entries raced in pairs.
In the morning, UW veterans Martincic and Bryant turned in the best time among 32 entries in the 4K head race, completing the course in 16:45.126. A pair from the University of British Columbia finished second, with UW's Angharad Broughton and newcomer Elena Collier-Hezel finishing in third place.
The UW pair of Jeri Rhodes (like Collier-Hezel, a transfer from Michigan) and Leah Nash finished in sixth place, earning a spot in the afternoon sprint, a 250-meter race featuring the top-six finishers from the 4k.
In the sprint, those three Husky pairs finished in third, fourth and fifth places, with a UBC pair taking first place and a pair from Washington State in second. Martincic and Bryant finished in 55:474, less than three seconds back of the winners.
Washington had 11 total entries, which included among them six newcomers and one pair made up of two coxswains, Grace Murdock and Nina Castagna.
