Brentwood Rowing Alumni Capture Gold
Brentwood’s rowing alumni continue to shine in top level competition. Scott Frandsen, Class of 1998, and David Calder, Class of 1996, Silver medalists at Beijing in the pair, recently won the same event at the National Rowing Championships in Welland, Ontario.
Fellow Brentwood grad Spencer Crowley, Class of 2007, placed fifth in the pair after winning two Silvers at the Pan Am Games last month. Malcolm Howard, Class of 2001, Gold medalist at Beijing in the eight, was slated to compete in the championships, but he had to miss the event due to an injury. All four of these athletes are now heading back to Victoria to compete for seats for the upcoming 2012 London Olympic Games. The Canadian team will be named in early spring.
Jordan Wille, Class of 2010, placed 7th in the men’s lightweight single event while Lauren Wilkinson, daughter of Brentwood alumni David Wilkinson, placed 2nd in the women’s pair.
