Three Barrington girls — Avery Collins, Claire Kao and Anna Friel — took home medals for a fourth place finish at the Head of the Charles regatta on Sunday, Oct. 18.

Avery, Claire and Anna raced for Narragansett Boat Club in the Women's Under-17 Fours.

Their boat was “bow 22” and managed to come in with a fourth place finish, which means they passed 18 boats along a notoriously winding course with six bridges. Thirty four boats competed in that race.
