Harvard Feeds Off Home Crowd in First Championship Eights Victory at Head of the Charles Since 1977


Harvard ended a 34-year championship drought by winning the Men's Championship Eight's event at the Head of the Charles Regatta on Sunday. And those involved in the victory couldn't be any more thrilled.

It's perhaps the most anticipated event at the Head of the Charles, so the victory is an unforgettable experience for Harvard, which nearly pulled off a victory at last year's event but eventually came short to Washington.

NESN.com's Chantel McCabe caught up with the Crimson rowers after the event to discuss the victory and what it's like to participate in the event on the Charles Rivers. Check out the video above to hear more.
