Harvard Football, Boston

Championships and distinguished alumni are both part of Harvard's 150-year athletic tradition that traces back to a wrestling match between sophomores and freshmen in 1780. Beyond their four NCAA championships in men's hockey, women's lacrosse, women's rowing, and fencing, Harvard has produced 141 national team championships and numerous Olympians who have faced off against elite competition and in almost every time zone. Not only is the Harvard football program one of the oldest in the world, having begun competing in 1873, the Crimson legacy includes no less than thirteen National Championships, twenty College Football Hall of Fame inductees, and a record that makes them the tenth winningest team in NCAA Division 1 football history.
