After attending Norcross High School, Loewy was a standout college soccer player at Winthrop University. He was his team's MVP for the 2008 season, was named to the 2006 adidas/Gamecock Classic All-Classic Team, the 2006 JAKO Classic All-Classic Team and was MVP of the Winthrop/Wingate Inn Classic in 2007.

Professional[]

After suffering an injury while playing for Winthrop during the 2008 NCAA College Soccer tournament,[2] Loewy was not able to take part in the 2009 MLS Combine, and as such was not drafted in the 2009 MLS SuperDraft.

After almost a year away from the game, Loewy signed his first a professional contract on March 31, 2011, when he signed with New England Revolution.[3] He made his professional debut on April 26, 2011, in the Revs' 3-2 win over D.C. United in the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup.[4]

Loewy was waived by New England on November 23, 2011.[5]
