In 1977, Schumann came third in the GDR national championships in a team made of rowers from SC Dynamo Berlin.[2] Schumann won the national title in the eight in 1978.[3] A composite team made up from the champion and vice-champion was sent to the 1978 World Rowing Championships on Lake Karapiro, New Zealand, where the team defended their title.[1]
At the 1979 national championships, Schumann came third in the eight in a team made solely from his club. The team had the same result at the 1980 championships.[3] Also in 1980, Schumann started with Heiko Schulz in the coxless pair and they took out the national championship title; however, the Olympic rowing team did not participate in the national championships that year. In 1981, Schumann and Schulz managed to defend their national title.[4] They came fourth at the 1981 World Rowing Championships in coxless pair.[5]
