  Oriel eight confident of holding headship

  Despite losing the outstanding Blue, Mahoney, to the British national eight, Oriel must be supremely confident of holding the Head of the River title in the Oxford summer eights, which starts today. The Oriel line-up contains the Blues Barry and Conington, the Isis oarsmen Holland and Todd, and other Boat Race triallists. Only if Oriel collapse, sink, steer themselves into the bank, or suffer equipment failure are they likely to be demoted.

  Interest may well centre on second place, where Keble should topple St Edmund Hall.

  Oriel remain Head of the River

  Oriel College remained Head of the River when the Oxford University summer eights were completed on Saturday. They went to the Head three years ago, when they displaced Keble College, and have not been dislodged since.
