Ed Leader, who rowed under the legendary Hiram Conibear at Washington from 1913-16, became the head coach at Yale in 1922. Since then, the Husky program has supplied numerous colleges and universities with rowing coaches.
Among the most famous: Rusty Callow, who coached at Pennsylvania and Navy after leaving Washington (Callow is enshrined in the National Rowing Hall of Fame), and Ky Ebright, who won five national titles and three Olympic gold medals after departing UW for California.
