Bernd Frieberg is a rower who competed for East Germany.
Frieberg rowed for ASK Rostock . In July 1971, he won a junior regatta between Eastern Bloc countries in the single scull . [1] In July 1972, Frieberg won in the single scull at the East German national championships. [2] For the men, the competition was not regarded as a full championship as the Olympic team was competing at the Rotsee regatta at the same time. [3] Two weeks later, Frieberg won a regatta in the single scull in Potsdam against competition from the Soviet Union. [4] At the 1973 national championships, he came second with his quad scull team and third in double scull . [5] [6] At the 1974 national championships, he came second once more in quad scull but with a completely different team. In 1975, he came third at the nationals in quad scull, once more with a different team. [5]
In 1976, Frieberg switched to sweep rowing . He won the national championships in coxless pair partnered with Ulrich Kons . [7] However, this being an Olympic year, the Olympic team did not participate in the nationals. He also came second with the men's eight at the nationals that year. [8]
In 1977, Frieberg remained in the eight. The team went to international regattas and they won that year's regatta on the Rotsee in Switzerland. [9] Later in the same month, that team took out the East German national championship title. [8] [10] That team went to the 1977 World Rowing Championships in the Netherlands where they became world champions in that boat class. [11]
In 1978, Frieberg was placed in the men's eight that was considered the second boat by the rowing officials. Surprisingly, that boat won the national championships in mid-July. [12] [13] In the end, a composite men's eight was formed for subsequent international competitions including the 1978 World Rowing Championships , with five rowers and the cox taken from the 1978 national championship team, plus three rowers from the second-placed boat. Frieberg, Bernd Krauß and Ortwin Rodewald were the three rowers who got replaced. [8] [14] Frieberg retired after the 1978 rowing season.
