Two rowers from Aberdeen are amongst five Scottish rowers selected to represent Great Britain at the 2013 World Rowing Under 23 Championships. Iona Riley and Lewis McCue are part of University Rowing Aberdeen, a unique partnership between the University of Aberdeen and Robert Gordon University and supported by Scottish Rowing. Additionally, both rowers are supported by the sportscotland institute of sport which gives specialised support to aspiring athletes with ambitions to make the Olympic podium.
Louise Martin CBE, Chair of sportscotland, said: "Congratulations to all of our Scottish rowers on being selected to compete for GB at the Under 23 World Championships. After last summer's terrific Olympic gold medals for Heather Stanning and Katherine Grainger, it is wonderful to see talented Scottish rowers coming through the system and competing at the very highest level in their age category. I wish them every success in Austria."
