Rebecca Rodgers

Rebecca Rodgers (born June 20, 2000, in Ventura, California) is an American curler originally from Leyden, Massachusetts, now living in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

She currently plays lead on Team Delaney Strouse.

After skipping during most of her U18 career, Rodgers joined the new Beth Podoll rink at lead for the 2017–18 season.

Also during the 2017–18 season, Rodgers partnered with Charlie Thompson for the 2018 United States Mixed Doubles Curling Championship, finishing 2–3 through the round robin.

The next season, Rodgers, Dudt and Quello joined forces with a new skip Ariel Traxler.

At juniors, the team again finished third after a semi-final loss to Cait Flannery.

The team, with third Emily Quello and second Susan Dudt finished 7–2 through the round robin at the 2018 United States Junior Curling Championships, enough to earn them a spot in the 1 vs. 2 game.

They then lost 7–5 to Madison Bear before dropping the semi-final 6–5 to Abbey Kitchens, eliminating them from contention.

Later that season, the team had enough points to qualify for the 2018 United States Women's Curling Championship, Rodgers' first national women's championship.

They finished in fifth place out of the eight competing teams with a 3–4 record.

In her final year of U18 eligibility, Rodgers teamed up with Dudt, Anna Cenzalli and Sydney Mullaney for the 2018 United States U18 Curling Championships.

After an undefeated round robin record and semi-final victory, they lost to Leah Yavarow 8–4 in the final.

They also qualified again for the 2019 United States Women's Curling Championship where they finished in sixth place with a 2–5 record.

For the 2019–20 season, Rodgers and Dudt added Sydney Mullaney and Delaney Strouse to form a new junior team.

Playing lead on the team skipped by Dudt, they reached the semi-finals of the St. Paul Cash Spiel and represented the U.S. at the 2019 Changan Ford International Curling Elite where they finished 0–7.

In the new year, Strouse took over skipping duties on the team with Dudt moving down to second.

She won the 2020 United States Junior Curling Championships and represented the U.S. at the 2023 Winter World University Games.

The change paid off as the team won the 2020 United States Junior Curling Championships, winning 9–8 in the final against Alaska's Cora Farrell.

This qualified them to represent the States at the 2021 World Junior Curling Championships, however, the event was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

They ended their season by playing in the 2020 United States Women's Curling Championship where they finished 2–5 through the round robin.

The following season, Leah Yavarow joined the team at third, shifting Mullaney down to second and Dudt to alternate.

Despite the limited number of events due to the pandemic, Team Strouse won the lone tour event they played in, the contender round of the US Open of Curling.

They also played in the 2021 United States Women's Curling Championship which was held in a bio-secure bubble at the Wausau Curling Club in Wausau, Wisconsin in May 2021.

They finished with a 2–4 record, not advancing to the playoffs.

Rodgers also played in the bubble for the 2021 United States Mixed Doubles Curling Championship with Daniel Casper where they went 1–4.

Team Strouse began the 2021–22 season by capturing a second U.S. junior title, going undefeated to win the event.

Rodgers was too old to compete, however, and was replaced by alternate Dudt for the event.

They also earned qualification into the 2021 United States Olympic Curling Trials by winning the Mayfield qualifying event, beating Christine McMakin in the final qualifier.

Before the Trials, Leah Yavarow was replaced on the team by Anne O'Hara who became the team's new third.

At the Trials, they finished tied for fifth with a 3–7 record.

At the end of the season, Rodgers teamed up with Samuel Crouse at the 2022 United States Mixed Doubles Curling Championship, failing to reach the playoffs.

The Strouse rink found major success during the 2022–23 season, beginning at the US Open of Curling where they had an undefeated run until the final where they were defeated by Ha Seung-youn.

They also qualified for the playoffs in their next event, the 2022 Stu Sells Toronto Tankard, before falling in the quarterfinals to Lauren Mann.

The team next played in the playdowns for the 2023 Winter World University Games where they won all four of their games to win the event.

Back on tour, they had four more playoff appearances, reaching three quarterfinals and one semi-final at the Curling Stadium Contender Series.

In the new year, the team represented the U.S. on home soil at the 2023 Winter World University Games in Saranac Lake, New York.

The team was dominant through the round robin, with Strouse, O'Hara, Mullaney, Rodgers and Dudt securing an 8–1 record, finishing just behind Korea's Ha Seung-youn who was their sole loss.

In the semi-finals, they met China's Han Yu where they suffered a narrow 6–5 loss.

They would claim the bronze medal after a 7–3 win against Great Britain's Fay Henderson.

Continuing their momentum from the season, Team Strouse finished 6–1 through the round robin at the 2023 United States Women's Curling Championship.
