Para rower Pritchard looking to make small margins count at European Championships
Ben Pritchard reckons maximising the marginal gains can catapult him onto the European Championship podium. The experienced Swansea para rower, 30, triumphed in his PR1 single sculls repechage in splendid isolation on the second day of the multi-sport Munich event to safely navigate his way into Saturday morning's final. Ad Pritchard, who narrowly missed out on a medal at the Tokyo Paralympic Games last summer, crossed the line in a time of 10:33.93 to triumph over his Israeli, Spanish, Hungarian and Polish opponents at the city's 1972 Olympic Regatta Centre.
