Early years

Lochbaum attended W. J. Mouat Secondary School in Abbotsford, and as a senior, in 1991, was named the School's Athlete of the Year. He went on to play for the Abbotsford Air Force of the Canadian Junior Football League before attending Butte Junior College in [California], and then transferring to Northern Arizona University.[2]

Professional career

Lochbaum was drafted by the Lions in 1997 and played in 10 games that year, recording 55 tackles and 15 special teams tackles.[3] But for a one-year stint for the Calgary Stampeders in 2001, Lochbaum played for the Lions his entire ten-year career[2] and was considered a stand-out special teams player.[4][5] He went unsigned, however, as a free agent in 2006.[4][6][7]
