Coaches Corner
Dear LGRC Rowers and Parents,
The fall season is just a few weeks away and we are
eager to get the year started. We have been working to put together a
team of coaches that will continue to raise the level of our junior
programs. We have made some changes and added some new coaches to our
staff this year and look to build a strong, fast and fun boathouse that will
see success in all of our boats, from top to bottom.
While many of the names on our coaches roster are familiar ones, 3 names are new to our staff, Evan Bainbridge, Kasey Heil and Katherine Cobarrubia. Please help me welcome them.
Evan Bainbridge comes to LGRC from
Newport Aquatic Center where he served as the Assistant Varsity Men’s Coach
that led the Lightweight 8+ to a National Championship in 2009, and Lead Novice
Boys Coach in 2010. As a junior, Evan rowed at LGRC and then went on
to row at OCC before finishing his degree at
Chapman.
Kasey
Heil, also a LGRC alum, recently graduated from Washington State University
with a degree in Kinesiology. While at Washington State, Kasey rowed and
coxed for the varsity womens program. In the past few years Kasey has
coached at LGRC as a part of the Summer
Junior Development Camp and the Masters Program.
Katherine Cobarrubia coxed for
Capital Crew in Sacramento as a junior and for UC Davis in college. Currently
she is a teacher at Presentation High School and will assist with both our
Master and Junior Programs.
We look forward to another year of hard work and fast boats.
Thanks,
Jaime Velez
Director of Rowing, LGRC
