Natalie Dell and her United States teammates finished second in their heat race on Saturday in the Olympic Women's Quadruple Sculls competition at Eton Dorney outside of London. Germany beat the Americans by about two seconds to secure a berth in Wednesday's final along with Heat 2 winner Ukraine.
Team USA posted the third fastest time, behind the two heat winners. Along with five other countries, the United States takes part in the repechage (semifinal) race on Monday. It can be seen live on nbcolympics.com at 4:40 a.m. Eastern Time (9:40 in London), while NBC is expected to show the rowing coverage at some point on Monday afternoon.
Dell is a 2003 graduate of Everett Area High School.
