Caldwell comes to Statesboro from Rice University, where she has served the last six seasons as an assistant coach for the Owls.<\/p>\n<p>During her six seasons at Rice, the Owls have captured three Conference USA titles, as well as the 2014 CSCAA (Collegiate Swimming Coaches Association of America) Invitational Championships. Individually, Rice swimmers captured 28 C-USA meet titles in six seasons and the school qualified swimmers for seven different NCAA Championship events in those seasons.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are absolutely thrilled to have Amanda Caldwell join Eagle Nation as the new head coach of our swimming and diving program,&#8221; Kleinlein said. &#8220;Her club and collegiate ties to the Georgia area, as well as her experience in developing and coaching championship swimmers collegiately, will help us take our program to the next level.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I see so much opportunity for growth with the Georgia Southern program,&#8221; Caldwell said. &#8220;I really got a good sense of where it could go during the interview process, just stepping on campus and meeting people. There are a lot of great club programs and successful high schools in the southeast that have talent you can tap into. And I know the student-athletes who are already in the program are talented academically, talented athletically and very active in the community. That&#8217;s the kind of program I want to be part of. I want our team members to be more than just athletes, I am looking for the whole package. That&#8217;s who I see myself recruiting to Georgia Southern University. I&#8217;d like to express my most sincere gratitude to Tom Kleinlein, <strong>Lisa Sweany<\/strong>, <strong>Brandy Clouse<\/strong> and <strong>Chris Geyerman<\/strong> for giving me this incredible opportunity at Georgia Southern. I&#8217;m thrilled and beyond excited to lead this group of extraordinary women to new heights&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Caldwell was also the recipient of the prestigious Jean Freeman Scholarship from the CSCAA in 2018, given annually to assistant coaches whose exceptional contributions have brought recognition to their college or university, and whose leadership, integrity, honesty, competitive attitude and personal graciousness epitomize those characteristics reflected by <strong>Jean Freeman<\/strong>,\u00a0longtime women&#8217;s swimming coach at the University of Minnesota.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The past few years at Rice, Coach [Seth] Huston has given me so much freedom in getting me involved in all aspects of running the program,&#8221; Caldwell said. &#8220;I was fortunate that I had room to do that. I&#8217;ve already been stepping on deck, acting and feeling like I was a head coach. I know I&#8217;m ready. I am forever grateful for my time at Rice and for all the relationships I&#8217;ve made. The students and staff who make up this unique culture have been so supportive of me and my professional goals. I could not have asked for a better environment to grow into the coach I am today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Prior to joining Rice University, Caldwell served as a volunteer assistant coach at Georgia Tech for four seasons, while also coaching for the Dynamo Swim Club in Atlanta. A four-year letterwinner at Youngstown State, Caldwell received her bachelor&#8217;s degree in 2006 from the institution and earned her master&#8217;s degree from James Madison University in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>A native of Martins Ferry, Ohio, Caldwell is a 2001 graduate of Martins Ferry High School. She is a certified member of the American Swim Coaches Association (Level II) and also a member of United States Swimming.<\/p>\n<p><em>The above press release was posted by Swimming World in conjunction with Georgia Southern Swimming and Diving<span style=\"color: #53565a; font-size: medium;\">.\u00a0 <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #53565a; font-size: medium;\"><i>For press releases and advertising\u00a0inquiries\u00a0please contact<\/i><\/span><span style=\"color: #0070c0; font-size: medium;\"><i>\u00a0<\/i><\/span><a href=\"mailto:advertising@swimmingworld.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #0070c0;\"><b><i>Advertising@SwimmingWorld.com<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"color: #0070c0; font-size: medium;\"><i>.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Georgia Southern Director of Athletics Tom Kleinlein announced today the hiring of Amanda Caldwell as head women&#8217;s swimming &amp; diving coach for the department.
