Bill Cleary whose association with Harvard spanned six decades and includes experiences as a student-athlete, coach and administrator retired June 30, 2001. His Harvard career began in his early years as a program seller at Harvard Stadium, continued through his days as a standout player, included his 19-year head coaching tenure and concluded with his 11-year term as the Nichols Family Director of Athletics.

Cleary ranks among the greatest athletes to play for Harvard lettering in both baseball and ice hockey and still holds or shares seven University records in hockey. In 1956, Cleary was a member of the U.S. Olympic hockey team that captured a silver medal. Four years later, he was the top scorer for the U.S. team that won gold at Squaw Valley, California. Cleary was also the leading scorer for the 1957 U.S. National Team and captain and MVP for the 1959 U.S. National Team.

Cleary, a Cambridge, Mass., native, graduated from Belmont Hill School in 1952. At Harvard, he earned a B.A. in Government and served in the United States Army from 1955 until 1957. After several years as a high school and college hockey official, he returned to Harvard in 1968 as the freshman hockey coach. Under Cleary, Harvard reached college hockey's final four on seven occasions and advanced to the national championship game three times. Harvard also won two ECAC Tournament titles, four Bean pot championships, and 11 Ivy League championships.

On numerous occasions, Cleary has been recognized for both his athletic ability and commitment to amateur athletics. In 1999, he was named by Sports Illustrated as Massachusetts 33rd best athlete of the 20th century. The Boston Globe, meanwhile, placed him 68th on its list of the top-100 New England athletes of the past century. In 1997, Cleary received the Lester Patrick Award for contributions to hockey, was named to the NCAA Ice Hockey 50th Anniversary Team, was chosen a U.S. Hockey Player of the Decade (1956-66) and was inducted into the International Ice Hockey Hall of Fame. In 1989, he was inducted into the United States Olympic Hall of Fame, which was followed by his selection as one of the 100 Golden Olympians by the U.S. Olympic Committee in 1996.

Cleary's retirement brought forth a landslide of recognition for the Harvard legend. On March 2, 2001, Cleary's hockey No. 4 jersey was retired in a ceremony at the Bright Center between periods of the Crimsons meeting with archrival Yale. It is the only jersey number retired in any sport in the history of Harvard athletics, which includes 41 varsity sports and over 150 years of intercollegiate athletic tradition. Harvard's three Hobey Baker Award winners Mark Fusco 83, Scott Fusco 86 and Lane MacDonald 89 were on hand to watch as Tim Stay 01, who wore Cleary's No. 4, skated from the dressing room, removed his sweater and surrendered the number to Cleary at center ice. Stay wore No. 3 for the remainder of his career.

Two weeks later in Lake Placid, N.Y., Cleary was bestowed another honor, as ECAC Commissioner Phil Buttafuoco announced that the trophy which is awarded to the regular- season champion would hereby be known as the Cleary Cup, honoring the longtime coach and administrator for his contributions to the ECAC and college hockey as a whole.

Heavyweight coach Harry Parker has guided the Crimson for the past four decades, bringing experience, expertise, and enthusiasm to Harvard heavyweight crew. Parker is widely regarded as the premier rowing coach in the United States and, since taking over the program in 1963, has brought tremendous success to the Crimson as his crews have dominated both the Eastern Sprints and National Championships. He has also guided Harvard to clear advantages over all its collegiate opponents, and has taken Crimson rowing onto a world stage to compete.

Highlights of his tenure include 18 undefeated regular seasons, 20 EARC Sprints varsity titles, 16 JV Sprints crowns, eight official National Championship victories, and eight unofficial National crowns when the Crimson has gone undefeated against all major competition.

The recent run of unparalleled success is the most recent addition to Parker's already- impressive resume, as the varsity enters the spring of 2006 having won 24 straight dual matches covering 32 opponents. Parker's 2005 varsity - thought in the pre-season to be vulnerable due to the 2004 graduation of six oarsmen and the cox - continued the remarkable run by capturing a third-straight gold medal at both Eastern Sprints and the IRA National Championship Regatta.

Prior to the recent string of three straight national titles (2003, 2004, and 2005), Parker's crews have been officially crowned national champions in 1983, 1985, 1987, 1988, 1989, and 1992, after capturing eight unofficial crowns in the two preceding decades.

Under Parker, Harvard crews have also raced against the world's best and achieved amazing success. Additionally, Parker-coached Harvard oarsmen have rowed at every Olympic Games over the past four decades.

Parker began rowing as an undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania, where he was part of victorious crews in the EARC Championships and Grand Challenge Cup. After graduating, he took up single sculling and won the Gold Medal in the 1959 Pan American Games. He then placed fifth in the single at the 1960 Olympics.
