After putting together an impressive regular season in 1977, the lightweight eight boat entered the prestigious Dad Vail Regatta understanding that no "8" boat had won a championship in nearly 20 years. The group of Joe Blickley, Don DeGrazia, Dan Hingley, Bob McNamara, Jim Muskett, Jon Oline, Jim Rogers, Fritz Sutter and Ed Vasko did just that, defeating a field of over 20 teams to earn the first eight-plus title since 1958. The boat's time was two seconds faster than the winning heavyweight eight time at the event, and cemented the group's place in La Salle history.
