HENLEY, England -- The Mercyhurst College crew team advanced to the semifinals of the Visitors Cup Challenge at the 2009 Henley Royal Regatta after easily defeating Berlin & Hannoverscher, Germany.

The Lakers crossed the line in 7:07, 12 seconds off their near-record pace from yesterday's first round upset of two-time Henley champion Galway, Ireland.

Mercyhurst will now face Molesey B.C.  in the semifinals on Saturday at 12:10 p.m. GMT (7:10 p.m. EST). Molesey defeated Newcastle & Dukla Praha in the quarterfinals after pulling a first-round upset against seeded Leander Club.
