The International Swimming League (ISL) is pleased to confirm that U.S. Olympic great Cullen Jones<\/strong> is joining the coaching staff of DC Trident ahead of Season 3.<\/p>\n

The 37-year-old Jones won gold medals at the 2008 Beijing Games and 2012 London Games in the 4x100m freestyle relay and 4x100m medley relay, respectively. He still holds the world record for the victory in Beijing as part of the team that also included Cali Condors General Manager Jason Lezak,\u00a0Garrett Weber-Gal<\/strong>e and Michael Phelps<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Cullen Jones said, \u2018\u2019I am honored and excited to join the ISL as an assistant coach for the DC Trident. I look forward to learning from our GM Kaitlin Sandeno<\/strong> and head coach Cyndi Gallagher<\/strong> as we build a championship team. The brighter the lights, the more we shine!\u00a0Go DC Trident!\u201d<\/p>\n

DC Trident General Manager Kaitlin Sandeno said,\u00a0\u201cCullen Jones\u2019 experience, reputation, accolades, and leadership will be an incredible asset to DC Trident and the league. I\u2019m thrilled to \u2018Rock the Red\u2019 with him and watch him connect and motivate our team.\u201d<\/p>\n

One of the four U.S. clubs, the DC Trident features an eclectic mix of Olympic legends and swimming\u2019s next generation of stars. Based in Washington, the club sticks to its routes with several American athletes, though it also includes some international talent. U.S.-based Zach Apple<\/strong> led the club last year, asserting himself as one of the ISL\u2019s top sprint freestylers. DC Trident finished 6^{th<\/sup>\u00a0in the inaugural season and 9^{th<\/sup>\u00a0in Season 2.<\/p>\n}}

In the first round of the ISL Draft earlier this week, DC Trident announced the first five athletes they will retain from their Season 1 and Season 2 rosters, with Apple, Zach Harting, Jay Litherland, Linnea Mack<\/strong> and Ting Quah<\/strong> the names announced.<\/p>\n

\u2022 More ISL coverage<\/a><\/p>\n

ISL Teams can retain up to a maximum of 15 \u2018protected\u2019 athletes, plus an additional \u2018protected\u2019 athlete elected via an interactive online fan vote. Teams will then be able to select 11 additional swimmers from the ISL Draft Pool during the ISL Draft, to a maximum total of 27 swimmers.<\/p>\n

The ISL Draft is scheduled to take place on 29-30 June 2021.<\/p>\n
