He began his coaching career in 1971 with club and age group swimmers.<\/p>\n<p>Bartsch then spent time working with the University of Southern California and the Philippine Olympic Team leading up to the 1992 Games in Barcelona. At the time, his swimmers set eight Philippine National Records, one Word Record and more.<\/p>\n<p>Next, he coached at Villanova, where his accomplishments include: two Big East women&#8217;s titles (&#8217;95 and &#8217;96), 17 Big East relay titles, 11 All-Americans, one NCAA individual champion, one Olympian and a top 20 team finish at the 1999 Women&#8217;s NCAA Championships.<\/p>\n<p>Bartsch moved on as an assistant coach at Penn State from 2001 to 2008. According to Penn State Athletics,\u00a0he helped lead the women\u2019s program to its first Big Ten Championships in 2002, 2005 and 2006. He also helped many of their distance swimmers on to Olympic Trials, NCAA and Open Water National Championships.<\/p>\n<p>His Penn State accomplishments include helping\u00a0<strong>Claire Hawley<\/strong> to a\u00a0second-place finish in the 25k event at the 2006 U.S. Open Water National Championships, earning her a spot on the Open Water World Championship Team for USA Swimming.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, Bartsch helped at St. Andrew\u2019s Aquatics in Boca Raton, Florida, as a coach from 2008-14.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_315040\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-315040\" data-attachment-id=\"315040\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/ed-bartsch\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Ed-Bartsch-e1529483150143.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"700,500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Ed Bartsch\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Ed Bartsch (L) enjoys a laugh with Sid Cassidy&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Sid Cassidy&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Ed-Bartsch-700x500.jpeg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Ed-Bartsch-e1529483150143.jpeg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-315040\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Ed-Bartsch-700x500.jpeg\" alt=\"Ed Bartsch (L) with Sid Cassity\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-315040\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Sid Cassidy<\/p><\/div>\n<p>According to St. Andrew\u2019s, Bartsch\u2019s family will scatter his ashes in the Florida Keys in a private ceremony next week.<\/p>\n<p><em>USC and Penn State Athletics contributed to this report.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ed Bartsch, coach to many teams across the country and 1963 NCAA Champion in the 200 Backstroke, passed away on June 18 after a multi-year battle with heart complications.
