It's her... oar me: Sisters do battle in the Boat Race

Two German sisters will race each other in the Boat Race, with Lilli for Oxford and Mia for Cambridge.
The race will take place on the Thames on April 4, with tens of thousands watching along the banks.
Lilli Freischem studies atmospheric physics while Mia Freischem is a PhD student in surgery at Cambridge.
The sisters began rowing during Covid-19 lockdowns at Edinburgh University in 2020.
Mia has previously edged Lilli in a prior competitive meeting between the sisters.
The event is part of the 80th edition of the women’s Boat Race.
Their parents will be in the crowd supporting both crews during the race.
The sisters say they will race their own race on race day and stay supportive of each other.
The Boat Race is a high-profile event expected to draw tens of thousands of spectators.
The sisters will be competing for Oxford and Cambridge in the women’s race.
