David Marsh Head Coach Team Elite Swimmac Carolina Head Coach David Marsh Started Team Elite Upon His Arrival at Swimmac Caroli David Marsh Head Coach Team Elite SwimMAC Carolina Head Coach David Marsh started Team Elite upon his arrival at SwimMAC Carolina in the spring of 2007. With the support of and in conjunction with the United State Olympic Committee and USA Swimming, Marsh wanted to positively impact and address the needs of the primary American medal-producing group, the post-graduate swimmer. The much sought after Marsh quickly rose through the ranks of USA Swimming and college coaching making the one consistency in his career winning. Known as one of the winningiest coaches in the country, Marsh’s vision was to model for the rest of the country a center of excellence that provided an experience for all with measurable results. He would go on to develop a success begets success model in which an Elite Team, prepping for the 2012 Olympic Games, would model “good” to young aspiring swimmers from SwimMAC Carolina. The two-time Olympic coach has directly coached over 34 Olympians who have won 27 medals. The Miami, Fla. native and 1981 graduate of Auburn University, Marsh went on to be an SEC champion in the 100 backstroke on a team that featured Rowdy Gaines. Later in Marsh’s career Gaines would swim for him in an attempt to qualify for the 1988 Olympic games. Following graduation from Auburn, Marsh stayed on to coach for four seasons before leaving for Atlanta as the head coach of Dynamo Swim Club. He then moved to Las Vegas in an effort to change the sport of swimming starting the Las Vegas Gold. The mentality of Vegas stimulated a progressive way to think as the Gold was the first program in the United States to offer $100,000.00, put up by Bob Stupak owner of the Vegas World to the first Gold swimmer to break an American Record. In 1990, at the Goodwill Games in Seattle, Wash., Marsh directed Stewart, a SwimMAC alum, to his first American record in the 200 butterfly. A few months later Stewart smashed the world record at the World Championship. In 1990 Marsh’s Alma mater was coming off of a season where the men did not score any points at the NCAA Championship and the women placed 24th, not keeping pace with the power house SEC. Auburn knowing change was needed reached out to the young Marsh and tapped him to take the helm as both the men’s and women’s coach. Quickly establishing a clear vision and proclaiming a yet to be seen conference title in four years with a National Championship soon to follow, young athletes were quick to jump on board. The results: 1994 Auburn Completes the James Martin Aquatic Center (50 mtr. pool) 1994 Auburn wins their first SEC title defeating perennial favorite Florida 1997 Auburn wins their first of 12 NCAA titles. At the same time Auburn was getting Marsh settled into his new role, USA Swimming tabbed Marsh in what would be his first of 11 international coaching assignments as the men’s assistant coach at the 1991 Pan-American Games in Havana, Cuba. Over the next decade Marsh would serve as an assistant coach six times and five times as a head coach for Team USA. (See insert for international experiences) With five seasons under his belt at Auburn, where he was turning both programs around to being top-15 in the country, and three international coaching experiences to draw from, Marsh was appointed to the 1996 Olympic Games men’s swimming staff. Four years later he was again asked to be part of the Olympic team. In the 2000 Sydney Games USA’s male swimmers upped the ante and won the most medals by a men’s swimming team ever collecting 16 medals, 13 individual and three relay. It was in 2012 when SwimMAC’s vision of a post-graduate system came full circle with five members of Team Elite being named to the 2012 Olympic Team. With five athletes, Cullen Jones, Kara Lynn Joyce, Micah Lawrence, Davis Tarwater and Nick Thoman, were named to the team, Marsh was added as the men’s assistant coach. The SwimMAC five brought home six medals from London and help USA Swimming remind the world just how dominant we are. Prior to the 2012 Olympics and Olympic Trials, Marsh was tabbed to lead the 2011 USA men’s team in the Mutual of Omaha Duel in the Pool. This was the third time, previously in 2003 and 2005, out of the five total Duels for Marsh to lead the team. With Marsh at the helm, the men outscored the European All-Stars 100.5-30. Marsh left Auburn for SwimMAC following a 17-year career. While at Auburn, Marsh’s swimmers excelled at the national and international levels of competition athletically, and most importantly, in the classroom. According to Marsh, success in the pool is success out of the pool. In the pool, accomplishments included numerous NCAA Team Championships, seven men’s (1997, 1999, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007) and five women’s (2002, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007). It is an unprecedented achievement that four of these Men’s and Women’s NCAA Championships were earned in the same season. His teams took home a combined 1,312 All-America honors by 276 athletes, along with 45 NCAA individual titles and 30 NCAA relay crowns. Out of the pool, 200+ swimmers were chosen to the SEC Academic Honor Roll and 45 were named Academic All-Americans. In addition, 25 combined men and women’s teams have been named CSCAA Academic All-American. He also coached four Leah Rawls Atkins and eight Cliff Hare Award winners. These awards are the highest awards an Auburn student- athlete can receive. Just as Auburn rose to become a powerhouse program, SwimMAC Carolina has done the same. Since taking over the program, the club has become the best in the country having won three national titles, consistent top-five finisher at Junior Nationals and this year the club’s first-ever Club Excellence title. Staying consistent with his belief in success outside of the pool leads to success in the pool, Marsh and SwimMAC strive to positively impact the community around them everyday. The club has raised funds, donated time and resources to dozens of groups and organizations in the Charlotte community.

  • Swimming and Diving DIVISION I MEN’S
    Swimming and Diving DIVISION I MEN’S Highlights Michigan wins fi rst championship since 1995, 12th overall: — When Michigan’s Bruno Ortiz pulled himself out of the water after swimming the anchor leg in the 400- yard freestyle relay at the 2013 Division I Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships, the singing started. “Hail to the Victors” echoed around the Indiana University Natatorium at IUPUI March 30, beginning with two Michigan spectator sections on one side of the building and carrying over to the Michigan bench area on the pool deck. The Wolverines did not win the 400 free relay; they fi nished second. But it didn’t matter. Michigan had wrapped up its fi rst national team title since 1995 long before that fi nal relay event. It was the 12th national title for Michigan, and meant it was no longer tied with Ohio State for the overall lead in Division I men’s titles. “This morning, we just kind of let our passion drive us. And that was it,” said Connor Jaeger, who began Michigan’s title drive on the fi nal night of the three-day meet with a victory in the 1,650-yard freestyle. He also won the 500 free in the meet’s fi rst individual race. Michigan’s victory halted a two-year title run by California, which fi nished second. “We started four years ago working on this,” said Michigan’s fi fth-year coach Mike Bottom. “You do it one day at a time; you do it one student-athlete at a time.
