The University of the Fraser Valley Cascades women’s rowing team earned the Bronze Medal at the 2010 Western Canadian University Rowing Championships, held at the Fort Langley Rowing Club. The Cascades earned 4-team points, while the champion University of Victoria earned 19-points and Silver went to UBC with 15-points.
Courtenay Landsiedel, a third year Mathematics major, from Abbotsford, BC came in second place in the Women’s Open race to earn the four points for UFV’s women’s team.
“Courtenay (Landsiedel) rowed some incredible races, ultimately placing 2nd to UBC in the Open Women’s 1x,” said UFV Head Coach Liz Chisholm. “She has such a head for competing; and has built some solid strength, she is looking forward to competing at Nationals in two weeks.”
When UFV’s Sports Information office receives the full statistics package on the 2010 WCURC it will be posted on UFV’s web site.
