Kathryn Serra '23 wins southeast virtual U.S. rowing title
I am very happy to report that Kathryn Serra '23, is the USRowing Southeast Region Virtual Champion in the Girls' Under 17 Single event. She pulled a 2,000 meter ergometer piece at home in the outstanding time of 7:12.4. This superb performance earns Kathryn a bid to compete for a U.S.A. Rowing Virtual Youth National Championship in the under 17 single event against 21 other girls from across the nation.
The national phase of the event runs from May 25 to June 12, with Virtual National Champions announced on June 15th. In keeping with the "socially distant" nature of this unique competition format, each rower pulled a 2,000 meter piece on the rowing machine at home. Based on her time, Kathryn has beaten all other competitors across seven regions of the country in her event and posted the fifth-fastest time nationally across the women's under 15, under 17 and youth single events.
Ransom Everglades rowers had the opportunity to finish out their season and compete on rowing machines (ergometers) virtually through U.S.A. Rowing's Virtual Regional Championships over the past two weeks, with the opportunity to earn bids to the U.S.A. Rowing Virtual Youth National Championships. Three rowers took up this opportunity: Mollie Forand '22, Ryan Berkshire '23 and Kathryn Serra '23.
In addition to Kathryn's winning time, Mollie Forand '22 finished seventh overall in the Women's Youth 1x event and Ryan Berkshire '23 finished ninth overall in the Men's U17 1x event.
