Hiram Conibear (1872-1917) was born in Illinois. He became the University of Washington's athletic trainer in 1906. Conibear's love of sports led him first to coaching bicycle racers and then to training college athletes. Though he never rowed a stroke in a racing shell in his life, but his innovations revolutionized the sport. His experiments led to a stroke with a shorter layback, a snap to the oar blade the instant it was inserted in the water, and a "shot" of the blade out of the water at the completion of the rower's drive. He is considered the "founding father" of the rowing program at the University of Washington
