Anthea Barnett served as an assistant coach with the UCLA womenโs rowing program for five years (2016-17 through 2020-21).
ย
Barnett worked primarily with the Bruinsโ novice rowers, specifically coaching the novice eight crew. She also handled the development of the third varsity eight and varsity four crews, assisting with recruiting responsibilities and overseeing operational and equipment duties with the rowing program.
ย
In 2021, the Bruinsโ program recorded three dual-meet wins against Loyola Marymount, USC and San Diego. UCLA had returned to the water in the fall of 2020 after the teamโs 2020 spring season had been substantially cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Bruins had opened the 2020 spring season with a dual-meet win against San Diego State, winning all four races.
ย
In 2019, Barnett helped UCLA to a strong regular season that included wins over San Diego State and Loyola Marymount and a fourth-place team finish at Pac-12 Championships. The teamโs developmental boats had a successful year, highlighted by a second-place finish at the Windermere Cup in Seattle in the third varsity eight and a bronze medal finish for the novice eight crew at the Pac-12 Championships.
ย
During the 2018 season, Barnett helped the novice eight crew to a fourth-place finish in the Grand Final of the two-day San Diego Crew Classic. The novice eight crew posted a fourth-place finish at the Pac-12 Championships and the third varsity eight finished fifth.
ย
In 2017, Barnett saw UCLAโs novice eight crew finished third at the San Diego Crew Classic. Likewise, the N8+ finished third at the season-culminating Pac-12 Championships, while the 3V8+ crew finished in fourth place.
ย
Prior to joining the Bruinsโ program, Barnett worked with Cleveland Youth Rowing Association and the Foundry High Performance Center in Cleveland, Ohio. Barnettโs impression was made through the development of several new rowing programs and her diligence to embrace Clevelandโs community.
ย
Barnett began her rowing career at Ithaca College in New York, competing for the Bombers for four years. She helped lead her college program to the 2009 NCAA Championships.
ย
Barnett continued coaching with the Ithaca womenโs rowing program from 2009-14, while also pursuing graduate studies in sport psychology. She served as an intern with Chris Kerber and the Cornell University lightweight menโs team in 2014. That season, Cornellโs team had a consecutive undefeated season and won the IRA title.
ย
Hailing from Augusta, Ga., Barnett graduated with a bachelorโs degree in politics from Ithaca College in 2009.
