YORK, PA \u2013 York College Assistant Dean for Athletics and Recreation Paul Saikia<\/strong> is happy to announce that Eric Rasmussen<\/strong> has been named the new head swimming coach\/aquatics director at York College. Rasmussen comes to York with over 25 years of coaching and aquatic experience.<\/p>\n

Rasmussen brings a very broad coaching portfolio to the Spartan program. He has served as the head coach at New Jersey Institute of Technology and Saint Peter\u2019s College (now University) while also serving tenures as an assistant coach at Manhattan College and Loyola (Maryland).\u00a0 Rasmussen began his Division I coaching career as a graduate assistant at the University of Texas. Most recently, he served as the aquatics director at the Raritan Bay Area YMCA in Perth Amboy, New Jersey.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to thank Paul Saikia, Dr. Gunter-Smith and Dean Joe Merkle for giving me this wonderful opportunity,\u201d said Rasmussen. \u201cI believe the future is bright for the York College swim program and I think we can achieve remarkable things through dedication, a positive attitude and the willingness to work hard. I am looking forward to coming to York and getting started.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Saikia is excited to get Rasmussen on board.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter an extensive search for our new head swimming coach and aquatics director, we are very excited to have Coach Rasmussen on board,\u201d said Saikia. \u201cHe brings 25 years of coaching and aquatics experience and he shares our very positive assessment of York College’s potential to build a nationally competitive Division III swimming program. We’re looking forward\u00a0to forging ahead in that pursuit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rasmussen will have a strong core to build on to start his Spartan tenure. Sophomore All-American Keven Stahl<\/strong> headlines a group of talented swimmers who will allow the Spartans to compete in the rugged CAC.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am eagerly looking forward to getting started.\u00a0 With school already in session, we\u2019re going to hit the ground running. It is very exciting!\u201d said Rasmussen. \u201cThis program has had good success over the last few seasons. I am looking to build on that success; ultimately becoming the premier team in Capital Athletic Conference.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Rasmussen\u2019s experience includes work with some of the top college and international-level coaches in the country.\u00a0 At Texas, he worked directly under the legendary Eddie Reese. Coach Reese has been the Head Coach of the US Olympic team three times and had led his Longhorns to 14 NCAA Division 1 crowns, including two when Rasmussen was his assistant.<\/p>\n

Rasmussen also worked as the head counselor\/coach for the Longhorn Swimming Camp for many summers.\u00a0 In that role, he worked under two more Olympic head coaches; Mark Schubert and Richard Quick. Between the two, they served on more than a dozen US Olympic coaching staffs.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was very lucky to have the opportunity to learn from some of the top coaches in the country. I use ideas that I got form each of them in my workouts on a regular basis,\u201d says Rasmussen.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Rasmussen served eight years as a head coach at Division I Saint Peter\u2019s College in Jersey City, leading the men\u2019s and women\u2019s swimming and diving teams. During his eight-year run, he orchestrated a mass overhaul of the school\u2019s records, with many of the records being broken numerous times. Upon his departure, only two school records predated Rasmussen\u2019s tenure as head coach.<\/p>\n

Rasmussen was an assistant at Division I Loyola (MD) College. During his three-year stay in Baltimore, the Greyhounds experienced a great deal of success.\u00a0 The culmination of his efforts came at the 2005 Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference championship meet where Loyola swimmers recorded over 50 personal best swims, breaking 19 school records and three conference records.<\/p>\n

Rasmussen officially begins his duties September 4.<\/p>\n
