Claudia Loeber

An East Coast native, Loeber returns for her sixth season at Lewis & Clark in the fall of 2023.
 
Loeber helped women's crew put together one of their best seasons in program history in 2022-23. The Pioneers won the Northwest Conference Championship for the first time in school history (NWC women's rowing established in 2015) and earned their second-ever trip to Nationals. Lewis & Clark won the petite finals in both the 1v8+ and 2v8+ to finish seventh overall at the NCAA Division III Championship. Loeber and head coach Sam Taylor were recognized as the 2023 Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association Division III Pacific Region Coaches of the Year.
 
She began her rowing career in 2005 as a high school freshman on the Cooper River in New Jersey, before going on to row as a four-year varsity student-athlete at Temple University in Philadelphia, Pa. At Temple she spent three years in the varsity 8+, was named as a National Scholar-Athlete her senior year, and graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in photography.
 
Prior to coaching at Lewis & Clark, she worked with masters rowers at Cooper Rowing Club, and spent three years as a coach and staff photographer for Row New York, where she worked across programs with both adult and junior rowers, including veterans, people with cognitive and physical disabilities, and middle school, high school, and college-age athletes. Outside of the academic year, she rows with and coaches for Station L Rowing Club in Portland.
