Jessica Crow strapped on her dancing shoes over the Labour Day weekend to Rock ‘N’ Roll at the Senior National Rock ‘N’ Roll Championships in the restricted, triples and same sex categories.
Organising rehearsals with her team mates proved difficult for the 18-year-old with her restricted partner located in Auckland and her two triples partners from other schools in the Hamilton area.
Crow and her partners were awarded three silver in the same sex category; a silver in the restricted category; silvers for the triples and open triples best dressed; and a bronze for same sex.
Earlier this year, a week after competing at Maadi Cup, Crow headed to the junior nationals to compete with a new dance partner. The duo came out of the competition with two golds and a silver. An amazing achievement for the pair who had only rehearsed twice prior to the competition.
Crow’s medal tally of 10 for the year finished off another successful dance season for the rock and roller who won six gold, two silver and one bronze medal at Junior Rock ‘N’ Roll National Championships in 2014. Jess holds the record for the most gold medals won by any individual in this competition.
