The longest-tenured coach in the history of Gopher Athletics, Terry Ganley<\/strong>, has announced her retirement after 44 seasons with the swimming and diving programs. Ganley is one of the most-decorated, pivotal and important athletic figures at the University.<\/p>\n

The statistics from her coaching career are staggering. She helped lead the Golden Gophers to seven team Big Ten Championships and 17 NCAA Top-15 finishes. On her watch, the Gophers won 15 individual national titles, earned All-America honors 299 times and accumulated 532 All-America certificates. Her student-athletes also claimed 147 Big Ten championships, and her women’s program amassed a dual meet record of 318-83-5 during the 44 seasons.<\/p>\n

“Today I had the privilege to do something that not many people get to do,” Terry Ganley said. “I was able to announce my retirement from the place where I spent four years as a student-athlete and then coached for 44 years. Maroon and Gold is and always will be home for me. It was an honor to teach, coach and mentor the young women and men of this great program. I am truly blessed to have spent my career as a Gopher.”<\/p>\n

Ganley’s story involves much more than coaching. A Minneapolis native, she began her Gopher career in the fall of 1973 as a freshman swimmer and has remained on campus ever since. She won her first Big Ten title in 1974, winning the 50 backstroke. She would advance to the AIAW National Championships, where she sold t-shirts to help fund her trip to the meet. That March, she would go on to earn All-America honors in the event, becoming Minnesota’s first female All-American in any sport. She would go on to earn All-America honors two more times in 1975 (50 freestyle and 100 individual medley) and once more in 1976 in the 200 freestyle relay. She won the 1977 Big Ten title in the 100 individual medley as well.<\/p>\n

After the conclusion of her swimming career and a degree in physical education in 1977, she began her coaching career under her college coach, Jean Freeman<\/strong>. The coaching combo began a steady build of the program that included numerous close calls in claiming the program’s first Big Ten championship. The Gophers finished second nine times between 1984 and 1998. Finally, the Gophers broke through to win their first Big Ten title in 1999 and a second one the next year. In 1997, Ganley coached Gretchen Hegener<\/strong> to the 1997 national title in the 100 breaststroke, to mark Minnesota’s first NCAA swimming title.<\/p>\n

“I want to congratulate Terry on her well-earned retirement,” said Director of Athletics Mark Coyle<\/strong>. “Her story is one of perseverance, dedication and triumph and her legacy as one of the best ever – to compete in the Maroon and Gold and to coach the Maroon and Gold – is well secured. She broke barriers as a student-athlete and then positively impacted thousands of Gopher athletes as a coach. Terry set a standard of excellence and we wish her well in her retirement.”<\/p>\n

In 2004, Freeman retired and Ganley was named interim coach. Eventually, Ganley and Kelly Kremer<\/strong>, who had been coaching with the men’s program, were named co-head coaches of the women’s team. The duo earned Big Ten Coach of the Year honors in 2006 and led the Gopher women to their third conference title in 2008.<\/p>\n

When the men’s and women’s swimming and diving programs merged in 2011, Kremer was named the overall head coach. Ganley continued in her role as women’s head coach, and later her current role as women’s and men’s senior associate head coach.<\/p>\n

“There aren’t enough words, or words big enough, for an occasion like this,” said Kremer. “Terry is the standard for how to love and care for this University and program, and she will be greatly missed. Personally, she is a close friend, colleague and mentor, and I know she will continue to support us as she takes this next step in her life. I would like to thank her and congratulate her!\u00a0 What an amazing legacy!”<\/p>\n

The program then began a period of unprecedented success becoming the school’s first women’s team to win four consecutive Big Ten championships, repeating from 2012-15. From 2006 to 2015, the Gophers finished no lower than 13th at the NCAA Championships, including a program-best ninth in 2011. In 2014, Minnesota finished 10th at the NCAA meet, snagging All-America honors in 16 different events, a program record. Terry Ganley was involved in the development of three NCAA Champions during this period as well. The Gophers swept the breaststroke events in 2011 with Jillian Tyler winning the 100 and Haley Spencer taking the 200. In 2015, Kierra Smith<\/strong> won the 200 breaststroke. Ganley finished on the highest note possible, assisting in the development of Max McHugh<\/strong>, who won the NCAA title in the 100 and 200 breaststroke in March, becoming the first men’s NCAA swimming champion in nearly 60 years.<\/p>\n

Confirming Ganley’s commitment to a well-rounded student-athlete experience, eight members of the women’s program have won the Big Ten Medal of Honor. At least a dozen women have earned Academic All-Big Ten status in each of Ganley’s \u00ad\u00ad\u00ad17 years as head coach or associate head coach.<\/p>\n

Ganley was inducted into the Minnesota Aquatics Hall of Fame in 1984 and the M Club Hall of Fame in 1990.<\/p>\n

Ganley’s 44-year tenure is matched by former football assistant coach George “Butch” Nash who served for 44 seasons from 1947 to 1980.<\/p>\n
