Samuel Arthur "Sam" Lowrie was a New Zealand rugby league player who represented his country. His grandnephew, Jason Lowrie, also represented New Zealand in rugby league.

Lowrie played for the Ponsonby club in the Auckland Rugby League competition.

In 1919 Lowrie played for Auckland and was first selected to represent New Zealand, playing in three test matches against the touring Australian side.

In 1922 Lowrie toured Australia, with the New Zealand Māori rugby league team.

Lowrie was named Ponsonby's best forward in 1923. He again played for New Zealand in 1924, against the touring Great Britain Lions, and toured Australia in 1925, a tour where no test matches were played.

He retired in 1927 after fracturing his jaw. He played in 149 games for Ponsonby between 1914 and 1927, out of a possible 196.
