The Rowe Cup was first presented in 1946 to the EARC by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and was the gift of Charles Hayden (MIT 1890).  It honors the memory of Dr. Allen Winter Rowe, a former faculty member who served for 16 years as chairmen of the MIT Athletic Board.  Under his leadership crew became a varsity sport at the Institute.  The Rowe Cup is won annually by the college scoring the highest total points in the varsity, second varsity and freshman races under a scoring formula developed by the EARC Coaches.
