Raider of the Week
This year’s final Raider of the Week Award goes to the Rowing Team. The Men’s Lightweight 4+ qualified for the IRA National Championship in California. They took third in their heat to qualify for the Grand Final on Sunday . Harvard eventually went on to win the championship. The finish not only marks the first time an MSOE crew has competed in the IRA National Championship but also the first time one has reached a Grand Final.
