Vikes men’s rower Lee Hall’s lightweight-double performance at the 2013 Canadian University Rowing Championships has earned him the Original Joe’s Athlete of the Month honours for November. Hall, along with fellow Vike and Canadian national team member Alex Walker, rowed to a first-place men’s lightweight double finish at the championships. The pair’s first win of the fall season came at the annual Victoria-hosted Head of the Gorge event. Hall, a fourth-year social sciences major and Victoria native, has been a fixture on the Vikes men’s rowing team, alongside Walker the duo have established themselves as one of the top pairs in the country after also capturing gold at last year’s 2012 CURC’s.
