The DSC  Board of Directors is thrilled to announce that Georgiana Ogrean has been hired to be Head Junior Coach/Program Manager. As Novice Masters Coach at Lake Merritt Rowing Club, she has excelled in developing new rowers. This summer she is Head Coach of DSC’s successfully running summer sculling camps for middle and high school girls, building the groundwork for an even stronger GRS team in 2019-2020. As a rower herself, her ascendency has been remarkable for one who began rowing in 2016! Her passion for and commitment to rowing has led to the following accomplishments at LMRC: 1st place in Mixed Masters 8+ at the Head of  the Lagoon 2018; 2nd place in the Mixed A 4x event at USRowing Masters Nationals 2018; and 1st place in Mixed Masters Novice 8+ at  Gold Rush 2018, Wine Country Classic  2017, and Head of the American 2017. An accomplished sculler, Georgiana will bring her passion for the sport to Stockton’s youth in DSC’s Girls Row Stockton team and the Erg Ed program in local schools. She will also assist DSC as a whole by making use of her boat maintenance and repair skills and her proclivity for program management.  

Before rowing took over her life, Coach Georgiana, who hails from Romania, did post-doctoral work at Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and Stanford in Astrophysics research on the heels of finishing her PhD in Physics at the University of Hamburg. Those studies were preceded by her MSc in Astroparticle Physics and BSc in Earth and Space Sciences, both at Jacobs University Bremen. Her brilliance is matched by her upbeat demeanor, great sense of humor, and excitement for our beloved sport.

Welcome, Georgiana. We are THRILLED that you are a part of DSC!

My daughter has been interested in rowing, but has no experience. When do you train for the 2019-2020 season? Is there a way to explore her interest in rowing and go from there? Is this competitive? If so, what events do they compete in?

Hi Joel! Thanks for your interest on behalf of your daughter. To answer your questions: we are currently training M-Th 4:00 to 6:15 and Fri 4:00 to 6:45. We have the last regatta of the season this coming Saturday at Lake Natoma, Sacramento. Your daughter (and you) would be welcome to come out and watch a practice from the coach's launch (as long as we are on the water) any time. Also on Nov 8 and Dec 12, we are going to offer "Learn-to-Scull" experiences for young women. She could join us either of those days. And yes, we are competing. We compete in head races in the fall (we just competed at the Head of the Port and this Sat will be Head of the American. In the Spring we compete at approximately 5 races, all in the bay area and in Sacramento. Feel free to reach back to me for more info and you are welcome to call me at 209-607-9876. Thanks again for your interest!
