Ursula Grobler has already qualified for the USA LW2x, with Abby Broughton, but is racing at trials next week in the both the LW1x and LW4x. If she were to win all the trials should she attempt to triple up? Read the details and vote below. Feel free to comment on the poll to let us know what you think!
Something to consider from coach Carlos Dinares:
"Priority of racing is the LW2x, LW4x, then LW1x. So any potential issue (weather, injury, etc.) that would put the LW2x at risk may result in a scratch in the LW4x or LW1x."
"Results of the poll will be taken under consideration for the final decision of what she will enter for Worlds, if she wins the two (trials) events and has the right to race the three events in New Zealand."
Some PROS:
It has never been done before, and the first person always has to take the risk
This could elevate lightweight women's rowing in the USA which has been on the back burner for some time
Winning three medals
Some CONS:
The quick turn around between the 2x final and 1x semifinal and weigh in
Overextending and placing the other events at risk
