Shane Francis Seamus O'Mara (born December 18, 1982 in Buffalo, New York) is an American rower. He was educated at The Gunnery (a prep school), Northeastern University and Hughes Hall, Cambridge.[1] As a member of Cambridge University Boat Club, he was selected to stroke the 2008 Blue Boat, but fell ill three days before The Boat Race and had to be replaced.[2]

O'Mara represented the United States in sculling events at the World Rowing Championships three times: in 2000 (as a junior) in Zagreb, Croatia; 2005 in Gifu, Japan; and 2006 in Dorney, England. He also sculled in two World Cup events in 2007.[3]
