Amanda Young Trophy

The 2001 Australian University Games were a triumph for the Sydney University Women’s Rowing Team that topped the women’s pointscore winning the ”Amanda Young Trophy”. Every crew made into into their A Final.

In an exciting final the eight consisting of Georgia Koutts, Peta Estens, Livia Laborczfalvi, Erin Crawford, Lizzie Georgouras, Natalie Schuler, Elizabeth Hepner, Hilary Stiel and Carly Bilson won the “Professor Godfrey Tanner Cup” in a gripping finish, rowing over the Melbourne crew in the last metres of the race. This was our first Women’s Eight victory since 1981. From the winning eight, Peta Estens also managed a superb victory in the Heavyweight Single Scull to bring home the “Kath Suhr Trophy”.

Equally impressive was the win by the Lightweight Quad Scull, who dominated the race from the start. The crew consisted of Claire Glendenning (team manager), Emma Shaw, Fjelda Lee and Keli-Jane Stapp.
