The Ivy League champion was determined the fastest Ivy boat in the heavyweight first varsity eight grand final at the Eastern Association of Women’s Rowing Colleges (EAWRC) Sprints from 1974 to 2011. Women’s rowing at Harvard competes under the name Radcliffe so all references related to Harvard in women’s rowing are listed as Radcliffe. The EAWRC Championships during the 1977-78 academic year was cancelled due to bad weather, thus there was no Ivy League champion recognized that year.
