"We rowed back into contention and the women responded to the calls. There were a lot of hearts beating together in this one boat."

"Overall, the Canadian team competed here with a lot of determination and pride," said Rowing Canada high performance director Peter Cookson. "The womens team performed to world-class standards and it was a pleasure to watch them race here. "The lightweight men made significant strides towards our goal of inching them back up to world standards. Our heavy men, while we are all disappointed with the results, are showing character and resolve that will certainly benefit them for next year and beyond." Great Britain won gold in the mens eight, finishing ahead of Germany and the United States. Canada did not send a mens eight team to the world championships this year. "Weve got a lot of hard grinding to do over the fall, winter and spring, and I know all of the athletes on the team are itching to get back at it," Cookson said. "Our team motto is integrity, pride and performance. This team is starting to show those characteristics in many ways." In other events on the last day of competition, Nils Jakob Hoff and Kjetil Borch of Norway won the mens double sculls. They took the lead at the midway point of the race and held off a late challenge from Rolandas Mascinskas and Saulius Ritter of Lithuania to claim their first world title.
