SJSU swimming and diving head coach<strong>\u00a0<dfn><a href=\"https:\/\/sjsuspartans.com\/coaches.aspx?rc=351\" rel=\"smarttag\" rev=\"351\">Sage Hopkins<\/a><\/dfn>\u00a0<\/strong>made the announcement on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have known Whitney for many years, first as a dominant athlete and more recently as a coach,&#8221; Hopkins said. &#8220;Whitney&#8217;s name immediately came to mind when our assistant position opened, and she was my first call. Her commitment to the academic and personal growth of our student-athletes, coupled with her fierce, competitive spirit makes her an awesome fit for our program.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jorgensen joins the Spartans after serving as the assistant age group coach\/head master coach for the Sierra Marlins Swim Team in Folsom, California, a position she has held since February 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Jorgensen, a native of Roseville, California, had a prolific four-year college career that spanned two universities. She began her career at Boise State where she earned All-Mountain West accolades in the 400 IM as a freshman in 2013-14. That season, she posted a personal-best 4:16.26 in the 400 at the Hawkeye Invitational, which was the second-fastest mark in school history. At the Mountain West Championships that season, she finished 12th in the 200 IM and was the Broncos&#8217; top finisher at fourth in the 400 IM.<\/p>\n<p>Jorgensen swam again for Boise State in 2014-15 as a sophomore, but transferred to the University of the Pacific for her junior and senior seasons. As a junior, she picked up All-Mountain Pacific Sports Federation First Team honors in the 200 IM with a third place finish at the MPSF Championships. She also earned first team honors in the 400 IM and was a second team member in the 200 Breast.<\/p>\n<p>Between her junior and senior years, Jorgensen was selected to compete at the 2016 US Olympic Trials in both the 400 IM and 200 Breast.<\/p>\n<p>Jorgensen closed her collegiate career by breaking a pair of school records in the 200 Breast and 200 IM, doing so at the MPSF Championships with times of 2:14.51 and 1:59.20, respectively. She won the 200 Fly and was second in the 400 IM as well. Overall, Jorgenson finished the season with Pacific&#8217;s top times in the 200 IM, 400 IM, 200 Fly, 200 Breast and 200 Back.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I could not be more excited to become a part of the Spartan Family,&#8221; Jorgensen said. &#8220;Swimming has been a passion of mine for the past 19 years. I am overjoyed to have the opportunity to continue in a sport I love by becoming the assistant swim coach. I look forward to working with these athletes alongside Coach Hopkins, and I have a great feeling about this season.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>\u2014 The above press release was posted by Swimming World in conjunction with San Jose State<\/i><i>.
