Austin Bury helped the states United States National Team win a gold medal for quads in the 2010 CanAmMex championships.

Austin Bury, a senior member of the Malvern Prep crew team, will continue his rowing career in college for Georgetown University’s men's heavyweight team.

A three-year Varsity rower and captain for coach Craig Hoffman, Bury helped the United States National Team win a gold medal for quads in the 2010 CanAmMex championships, and won a silver medal in the double at the same event.  Bury is a two-time gold medalist at the Philadelphia City Championships (2009 and 2010), the Stotesbury Cup Regatta (2009 and 2010), and the Scholastic Rowing Association of America National Championships (2009 and 2010).

“Austin’s work ethic and positive attitude have helped him to achieve great success on a national level, and I’m sure he’ll continue to accomplish great things at Georgetown,” said Hoffman, who joined Bury and his parents, Timothy and Betsy Bury, at the announcement.
