Ian Peter Middleton (born 27 June 1995) is a former rowing cox from England.

Profile

Whilst in education at Abingdon School[1] he gained colours for the Abingdon School Boat Club.[2] After leaving Abingdon in 2013 he attended Queens' College, Cambridge and joined the Queens' College Boat Club.[3]

Rowing

In 2014 he was selected as the cox for the Cambridge light blue boat at the world renowned Boat Race but finished on the losing side. A second appearance as cox in 2015 ensued but Cambridge once again lost. A third appearance arrived in 2016, which resulted in a win.[4] In addition to representing Cambridge he has coxed Great Britain's under-23 men's eight crew, steering them to sixth place at the 2014 World Rowing U23 Championships in Varese, Italy[5] and a silver medal at the 2016 World Rowing U23 Championships.
