Henihan praise for Irish efforts
Chef de mission Dermot Henihan last night heaped praise on Irish competitors who have broken national records and personal bests over the first six days of these Olympics
Said Henihan: “Tuesday was a great day for Irish and Olympic sport. You had Eoin Rheinisch coming fourth in the kayaking, Andrew Bree breaking a national record and then breaking another yesterday in the pool. You had John Joe Nevin in boxing, the lightweight fours and the equestrian team finishing eighth, so well done to them all.
