Sam starting rowing at Strathclyde and has just this year finished studying an MEng in Aero-Mechanical engineering. For those of you who don't know, Sam was selected this year for the GB U23 Quad and has been coached by Alistair Warnock and Lindsay Dick. 

There's a bit about him and his background on the GB rowing site. The link is http://www.britishrowing.org/gb/biographies/sam-scrimgeour 

Just checked the results and it would appear that they finished 3rd taking home a bronze. Also worth a mention were Andy homes in the four finishing up with a bronze and Polly Swann finishing 4th in the A final, both from Scotland also.

Results for Sam can be found here http://www.worldrowing.com/index.php?pageid=91 by selecting the event

Incredible achievement there by Sam, Alistair and Lindsay, and best of luck to them in the future
