Hugh Miller Foley (March 3, 1944 – November 9, 2016) was an American rower. Competing in the eights he won an Olympic gold medal in 1964 and a bronze medal at the 1965 European Championships.[1] He also won a gold in the coxed fours at the 1967 Pan American Games.[2] During his career, Foley won a total of six national titles in the fours and eights.[3]

Foley was born in Seattle, but was raised in Martin City, Montana, where his father worked as a forester and a farmer. In 1962, Foley enrolled to Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles,[4] but then transferred to La Salle University in Philadelphia, graduating in 1966 in accounting. He joined the Vesper Boat Club there around 1963.[5] He remained active in rowing after retiring from competitions, and coached at Boston University in the 1970s, but later became a financial advisor in Eugene, Oregon.[3] His Olympic medal was stolen from his home in 1996, but was recovered by the police.[6]
