Former Harvard rower and Olympic gold medalist Malcolm Howard
’05 earned honorable mention Rowing News Male Athlete of the
Year.
Malcolm earned a gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics as a part
of the Canadian eight. The following year he helped the Canadian
eight, a crew that was not expected to be good in 2009, to a silver
medal at the world championships.
In the January edition of Rowing News, Ed Winchester
wrote, “Howard’s career has long been marked by
success, from his days as a standout junior at Brentwood College to
his role in the engine room of the national champion Harvard
varsity eight. But it’s as a member of Canada’s senior
team that Howard has truly come into his own.”
