    Teresa Kwiatkowski Head Coach

    With 14 years of coaching experience—including a decade of summer coaching—I bring a passion for developing strong, confident swimmers both in and out of the water. A backstroke specialist coached by a former Olympian, I emphasize proper stroke technique and sportsmanship above all else. My favorite moments on deck are relays, where teamwork and energy come to life. Outside the pool, I’m a dedicated reader who loves traveling and spending time outdoors.

    Abi Kruger Assistant Coach

    I’m currently a junior in college with 10 years of competitive swimming experience and over two years of coaching under my belt. I love sharing my passion for swimming by teaching kids and helping them build confidence in the water. My favorite part of summer swim is seeing swimmers reach their goals and improve throughout the season. I specialize in freestyle and breaststroke, and I’m always excited to help athletes grow in those areas. Outside of the pool, I enjoy painting, baking, and, of course, swimming.

    Erik Olsen Assistant Coach

    I’m currently a freshman at KSU with eight years of seasonal swimming experience and two years of coaching. I’m passionate about helping others discover the same joy I found in swimming, while also providing a sense of purpose, confidence, and a fun outlet for relaxation. My favorite part of summer swim is the community—especially after-meet hangouts like grabbing ice cream or working with fellow coaches to make ribbons. Butterfly is my favorite stroke, and I love helping swimmers grow in both skill and confidence. Outside of the pool, I enjoy playing Dungeons & Dragons, reading, photography, gardening, and hiking.

    Allie Jewell Assistant Coach

    I’m currently a freshman in high school with 3–4 years of swimming experience and one year of coaching. I love being part of a sport that creates a fun and supportive environment while still encouraging swimmers to achieve their goals. I want to coach because I know how special it is to have a place where you can feel comfortable, have fun, and grow at the same time. My favorite part of summer swim is the strong sense of support and the friendships that come from being on a team. Freestyle is my favorite stroke, and outside of the pool I enjoy reading, watching movies, and spending time with friends.

    Simon Kamarystau Assistant Coach

    I have been swimming for 10 years and coaching for the past 2 years. Swimming has taught me the importance of hard work, teamwork, and having fun along the way, and I want to help every swimmer improve while still enjoying the sport. One of my favorite parts of summer swim is the fun and excitement of summer meets and the memories made with teammates throughout the season. Freestyle has always been my favorite stroke. Outside of swimming, I enjoy riding dirt bikes and mountain bikes, working on vehicles, and gaming.
