Cascade Canoe & Kayak Racing Team

Congratulations to Finn Connell for his efforts and results competing with the US Mens Kayak Team at ICF World Cup 3 and the COPAC Pan American Championships in Montreal Canada last week! 🎉

Finn raced K1 1000m, 500m and 200m in the U23 category at Pan Ams and finished with a silver medal in each event - way to go Finn! 🥈🥈🥈

World Cup 3 was held right before Pan Ams and Finn competed in the K1 1000m and K1 500m events, finishing 8th in the 1000m B final (17th overall) and 7th in the 500m C Final (25th overall), impressive results for an 18 year old 💥

We are so proud of Finn and wish him and the rest of the US Team the best as they prepare for World Championships in Poznan Poland in August 🌟
