In order to highlight the 2016 U23 Women’s 8+ result as an outlier we analyzed the winning margin for all 8+ events at the World Championships and Olympics for U23 Women, U23 Men, Senior Women and Senior Men. Of the 17 data points collected on the U23 Women’s category the 2016 US 8+ was the only crew to have a winning margin over 7 seconds, an incredible 3.56 seconds above the average winning margin. Furthermore, across all 122 data points collected we found the average winning margin to be 2.05 sec, 5.11 sec less than the 7.16 sec winning margin of the 2016 US Women’s 8+.
