Dick O’Hern is the girls head rowing coach and he runs much of the logistical side of GA’s crew. He works with team parents to organize their weekly regatta support, he buys and maintains most of the team equipment, and he works with head coach Travers to get the team on the water each spring.

He’s been with the team since the spring of 2002, though primarily in a tangential assistant role until the spring of 2014. That year, he joined the team as an assistant, working with all rowers though mostly girls. In 2016, he became the full-time novice girls coach, and in 2021 he became head girls coach.

A couple of noteworthy highlights are the girls novice 8 (class of 2019), in his first year as novice coach, winning their first race of the season. That crew finished a commendable 4th at City Championships, and 7 of those girls rowed all four years at GA with three going on to row in college. Another proud achievement is the girls junior quad in 2021 (class of 2022). They had a great finish to their season, making it through the semifinals at the Stotesbury杯 Regatta and claiming 5th place in the finals. His primary goal as coach is to help each rower find her place in the sport, to learn to love rowing, and to work hard at rowing well.
