Fergus is joined by fellow Scot, Fraser Innes to run through all the action from the US Collegiate scene. Fraser, on an exchange programme to the University of Wisconsin takes us through the recent results from across the US university rowing scene and we look ahead to a mouth watering weekend of duels and matchups.
We're joined by Will Porter, the Yale women's head coach to discuss all things bulldog rowing including last year's NCAA results, his reflections on Steve Gladstone and of course Henley Royal.
This is the first in a mini-series covering US Collegiate rowing right the way through to the NCAA and IRA National Championship Regattas.
