HistorySamuel McCulloch was one of eight oarsmen representing the University of Melbourne who won the inter-varsity boat race on 6 October 1888. The boat race involved teams representing the University of Adelaide, the University of Melbourne and the University of Sydney and was held on the Saltwater / Maribyrnong river.
