Led by sophomore coxswain Isabel Beck (Montclair, N.J.), the men's varsity four navigated the serpentine 4,800-meter course on the Charles River in 16:33.151, good for fifth out of 39 crews at the 57th annual Head of the Charles Regatta. The previous best showing for the men's rowing team in the Collegiate Fours race was a 10th place finish in 2010.
