Luzern, Switzerland - Fourth in the final today was good enough to earn us a spot on the London Olympic team. Wow. I can't even believe that as I type it. It has been a great, great day. Lots to do still (packing, packing, packing) but here is some info in the mean time. More to come later!
- Results sheet - 4th place by 0.09 (yikes) and less than four seconds separating first through sixth
- Video of the race
- "Nichols and Hedstrom Qualify for London" USRowing's press release
- Full World Rowing report "China, New Zealand and Greece all looked happy at the medals presentation. But perhaps the happiest crew was fourth-placed United States. Kristin Hedstrom and Julie Nichols of the United States needed to finish fourth to secure their rights to being the Olympic crew. They had not managed to do it in Belgrade, but they did it today on the waters of the Rotsee."
