Jason Lefkowitz is entering his third season with the Brown
program after helping the Bears to an Ivy title in his first
season. Lefkowitz primarily coached the team's outfielders, also
working tirelessly to prepare scouting reports during the season.
Lefkowitz also serves as Brown's baseball camp director,
supervising two summer camps, a fall camp and a winter clinic. A
2006 graduate of Loyola Marymount University, Lefkowitz played for
the LMU Lions for two years, starting at both shortstop and second
base. He helped to lead LMU to the WCC championship game, narrowly
missing a trip to the NCAA Regionals in 2005. A psychology major,
Lefkowitz earned student-athlete academic honors in each of the
years he was there. He also coordinated an undergraduate research
project on the "Effects of Stress and Anxiety on Athletic
Performance." Prior to Loyola Marymount, Lefkowitz played at Solano
Community College for two years, where he was the starting
shortstop, while also seeing time at third base and left field. In
2003, he led the team with 12 doubles. The following year, he stole
a school-record 22 bases, hitting a team-leading .351 and earning
All-Bay Valley League honors. While at Solano, he earned an
Associate of Arts degree with an emphasis in Athletic Training. He
was named "Student of the Year" (2004), Dean's List (2003 and
2004), and Scholar-Athlete (2003 and 2004). He was also a member of
Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. Lefkowitz's coaching debut was at
Loyola Marymount, where he assisted the Lions on several occasions
when the assistant coach was unavailable. He then coached in the
Northwoods League over the summer before his arrival at Brown.
Lefkowitz is currently working towards his Master's Degree from the
United States Sports Academy. He resides in Providence, Rhode
Island.
