It was a great win for Jaime, especially since she had lost to the second-place boat last weekend at the St. Catherine&#8217;s Invitational by a large margin.<\/p>\n<p>But today, Jaime was strong the whole race and pulled away convincingly in the last 500 metres to win the gold. Now she&#8217;s well-placed for the rubber match at the <a href=\"http:\/\/henleyregatta.ca\/\">Henley regatta<\/a> August 8-13. It&#8217;s looking like it&#8217;s going to be a great race.<\/p>\n<p>Kelly wasn&#8217;t as fortunate, as her Jr. Womens&#8217; 4 broke a rudder and ended up fourth in their heat so they didn&#8217;t make the final.<\/p>\n<p>But both Kelly and Jaime are in action again on Sunday, so we&#8217;ll be back out at the course in Welland bright and early. I&#8217;ll let you know if there is more gold shining through the rain.<\/p>\n<p>SUNDAY UPDATE &#8212; Jaime kept her string going today, by winning her second gold medal in the Sr. Women&#8217;s Lightweight Doubles competition. Her partner, Lauren Chewter, struggled to make weight, but she did it, and the two of them had a great day, winning the final in convincing fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Kelly, for the second day in a row had a less satisfying day. Her Under 19 Women&#8217;s Eight had high hopes for a gold, but just as they were backing into the starter&#8217;s blocks in the final, their race was cancelled. A severe thunderstorm was brewing and the course officials made the call to cancel the regatta with 6 races left. Darn!<\/p>\n<p>So that wraps up the Ontario regatta season for this year. There&#8217;s just the Henley regatta left for this summer. Jaime is entered in the Single, Double and Eight, while Kelly is hoping to row the Single, Four and Eight. We&#8217;ll see. It runs from August 8-13. Then the movers show up on the 14th and we all leave Hamilton on the 15th. Quite a month&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: right;\">Technorati Tag: Proud Papa<a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Proud+Papa\" rel=\"tag\"><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You can tell by the smile on Jaime&#8217;s face that things went well today at the Ontario Championships as Jaime took the gold medal in the Under 23 Lightweight Women&#8217;s Single!
