final torpids post
Congratulations to all for a fantastic Torpids regatta. Results:
SATURDAY RESULTS
Keble Men's 3rd rowed over (division klaxoned)
Keble Women's 2nd bumped New 2nd
Keble Men's 2nd bumped Teddy Hall 2nd
Keble Women's 1st bumped St. John's 1st
Keble Men's 1st rowed over
So that's that. Keble College boat club combined for a net eleven bumps over four days. The women's 1st, because they bumped all four days without being bumped, won blades. And the Men's 3rd went and collected all of the possible results for a Torpids regatta: we rowed over, we were bumped by Pembroke, we bumped Oriel, and we had our division klaxoned. A klaxon, by the way, indicates that there is an emergency on the water and the race is to stop immediately. It is unclear why the division was klaxoned; in fact, the girl who klaxoned the division could not adequately defend her actiion. But whatever. I rowed in Torpids, I'm getting my splash jacket, and now I have some work to do.
