Cincinnati native John Janszen is entering his second season as an assistant swimming coach at Miami. Janszen was hired in December 2006 after spending nearly seven years at Xavier University as a student-athlete and assistant coach.
Helping Miami to a second-place conference finish in 2007, Janszen mentored eight all-MAC swimmers, including back-to-back MAC Swimmer of the Year Paul Ricard. Ricard won three MAC titles in the 200, 500 and 1,650 freestyle and became the first Miamian in five seasons to qualify for the NCAA Championships. Ricard also set a pair of school records in the 500 freestyle (4:21.84) and 1,650 freestyle (15:11.56) and earned MAC Swimmer of the Week honors on Jan. 30. In addition to helping Miami to its fourth straight top-two MAC finish, Janszen's first season in Oxford also saw two swimmers place on the all-MAC academic team.
At the collegiate level, Janszen spent nearly two years coaching at Xavier (August 2005 - November 2006), as he assisted with the men's and women's teams. With the Musketeers, Janszen assisted with all training groups, including the sprint, distance, individual medley and stroke groups. Janszen also was in charge of recruiting for the men's program.
Also an experienced YMCA coach, Janszen split time between the Powel Crosley Jr. YMCA and Gamble Nippert YMCA (2004-2006). Serving as an assistant coach at Powel Crosley since August 2005, Janszen ran the National and Senior Team practices and developed a strength and conditioning program that focused on building strength and flexibility. Prior to that, Janszen served as the head swimming coach at Gamble Nippert from September 2004 to August 2005.
Additionally, Janszen coached at both the club and high school levels in the Cincinnati area, serving as the head swimming coach at Wyoming High School (November 2005 - February 2006), an assistant coach with the Indian Hill Swim Club (June - July 2003-05) and the head swimming coach at the North Hills Swim and Tennis Club (2000-02).
Prior to his coaching career, Janszen swam for four seasons at Xavier (2000-04), earning Team MVP and the Extra Effort Award in 2001. An Atlantic-10 Commissioner's Honor Roll selection in four semesters, Janszen also was named Xavier's Most Improved Student-Athlete in 2004.
Janszen graduated from Xavier in May 2004 with a degree in Sport Management and is currently working towards a master's degree in Sport Administration. Before attending Xavier, Janszen was a high school swimmer at St. Xavier High School in Cincinnati.
