Central Queensland<br />

<strong>School</strong>s Rowing<br />

Championships<br />

Tough and windy conditions met rowers at this<br />

year’s Central Queensland <strong>School</strong>s Rowing<br />

Championships held at Bucca on Saturday 18 and<br />

Sunday 19 June 2011. Many of <strong>St</strong> Luke’s athletes<br />

were able to handle the conditions well to progress<br />

through to the finals and eventually win 8 medals.<br />

Demi Pressler-McHugh led the way winning gold in<br />

the Under 16 Girls Single Sculls and then paired up<br />

with twin sister Emma Pressler-McHugh to take<br />

first place in the Year 10 Girls Double Sculls. The<br />

Pressler-McHugh twins teamed up with Melanie<br />

Schmeider, Alexandrea Franks and Sarah Dimes<br />

to finish a close second in the Year 10 Girls Quad<br />

Sculls. Melanie Schmeider went on to place third in<br />

the Under 17 Girls Single Sculls while Alexandrea<br />

Franks and Sarah Dimes also finished third in the<br />

Year 10 Girls Double Scull. Emma<br />

Pressler-McHugh placed second in the Year 10<br />

Girls Single Sculls. Benjamin White and Ryan<br />

Chivers combined well to place second in the hotly<br />

contested Year 8 Boys Double Sculls and Rick<br />

Bennett progressed strongly through the heats and<br />

semi-finals to win the bronze medal in the Under 15<br />

Boys Single Sculls. <strong>St</strong> Luke’s rowers will now<br />

prepare themselves for the South Queensland<br />

<strong>School</strong>s Championships in July and Queensland<br />
