Congratulations to UCD Sports Scholarship recipient Dave Neale on winning the Offaly Sculling Ladder, bringing home the first title of the new rowing season. Dave finished the 2,250m course held on the Grand Canal just outside Tullamore in a time of 8:53, with a winning margin of 4 seconds over the very promising Junior18 and local lads Peter Grogan in 2nd and Dave’s younger brother, Andrew Neale in 3rd. Dave also held off the challenge in the Senior category from Danny O’Dowd (Galway RC) who finished in 4th place overall.

Dr.Michael Cleary - UCDBC & OCBC.
It is with great sadness that we pass on the news of the passing of OC Dr.Michael Cleary in Arizona USA. Mick was St.Patrick's Blue and Saffron to the core and he remained a proud OC and loyal supporter of UCD Boat Club since his College rowing days in the '40s and '50s. It was great that Mick and his family travelled in his 92nd year to celebrate the UCDBC Centenary in 2017. He will be missed and remembered. A good man and loyal OC.
