Success was especially sweet this time around, as
in the last three BUCS tournaments
in which the
team competed, they had finished
in silver
medal position behind Nottingham,
in one case by an agonising 14 points!
Competing after Rowlands on the slopestyle course was
Team GB's Cal Sandieson, who finished an agonising fourth
in the men's event with a best score of 81.00, five marks off the bronze
medal position.
