Mark Schubert Steps Down as Head Coach at Mission Viejo Nadadores<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mark Schubert<\/strong> has been through the drill nearly a dozen times, perhaps more than any coach in swimming history. When an Olympic cycle culminates, there\u2019s a rest and a re-evaluation before committing to the next four years. There\u2019s a regrouping to assess what the priorities are and where a coach of Schubert\u2019s pedigree wants to be when the next Olympics convene.<\/p>\n

At 72, Schubert felt that after this most recent and most unique Olympic cycle, the time was right to take a step back.<\/p>\n

Schubert resigned on Thursday as the head coach<\/a> of Mission Viejo Nadadores, the club at which he made his name in the 1970s as one of the world’s premier swim coaches and where he returned in 2016 to keep Mission Viejo atop the American swimming world.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter the Olympics and with COVID and everything, it was a pretty hard couple of years,\u201d Schubert told Swimming World. <\/em>\u201cWe had a successful Trials, and I was proud of how the athletes did in the Olympics. And it just seemed like the right time to me.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Schubert is looking to spend more time with his wife, Joke, and his grandchildren. He didn\u2019t close the door on ever coaching again, however, saying, \u201cI don\u2019t know what opportunities may come up, but I\u2019m always open to opportunity, and you never know.\u201d<\/p>\n

He\u2019s accomplished just about all there is to achieve on the pool deck, bringing a unique training approach to Mission Viejo that revolutionized American swim coaching. The 1997 inductee to the International Swimming Hall of Fame<\/a> started at Mission Viejo in 1972, after the University of Kentucky graduate spent a year coaching at Cuyahoga Falls High School in Ohio.<\/p>\n

Schubert was at Mission Viejo from 1972-85. He then spent three seasons at Mission Bay Makos Swim Club in Florida, and won two NCAA titles in four seasons as the coach of the University of Texas women\u2019s team. He won a women\u2019s NCAA title in 14 successful seasons at the University of Southern California. He was hired in 2006 as the U.S. national team head coach and general manager.<\/p>\n

Schubert joined Golden West Swim Club in California in 2011<\/a> and returned to Mission Viejo in 2016<\/a>.<\/p>\n

His unyielding approach to distance training grew a Mission Viejo program of 55 swimmers to more than 500 within a decade, the blue-and-gold juggernaut winning AAU and USS Club national championships and raising Olympians. A Mission Viejo swimmer has been on every American Olympic team since 1976, when Brian Goodell<\/strong> won the men\u2019s 1500 freestyle at the Montreal Games. Goodell also won the 400 free at those Games.<\/p>\n

That remains a personal highlight for Schubert, as does the first national championship won in 1974, in the women\u2019s category, won alongside the George Haines-<\/strong>led Santa Clara Swim Club.<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember standing in the locker room, soaking wet, and George coming up and congratulating me,\u201d Schubert said. \u201cAnd that was the thrill of a lifetime.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Mark Schubert during my swimming career,\u201d Goodell said in a statement. \u201cHe coached me from the age of 12, all the way through my glorious Olympic and college career. Mark’s dedication and hard work helped thousands of athletes achieve their goals and dreams, including dozens of Olympians, and impacting athletes from all-over the world. Mark’s passion and intensity to build the Mission Viejo Nadadores into a nationally ranked team created one of the most successful swimming and diving programs in the world, a legacy we value and honor today.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am sorry to see Mark Schubert leave the helm of the Nadadores, and I want to congratulate and wish the best to Mark and his wife, Joke, on the next phase of their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

Schubert would eventually down Santa Clara\u2019s record for national titles with 44 (18 women\u2019s, eight men\u2019s, 18 combined). Schubert was an assistant coach for the U.S. Olympic teams in 1980, 1984, 1988, and 1996. He served as the women\u2019s head coach in 1992 and 2004, and the men\u2019s coach in 2000, not to mention coaching numerous Team USA delegations to international meets.<\/p>\n

His Olympians are almost too numerous to name: Goodell, Shirley Babashoff, Mary T. Meagher, Tiffany Cohen, Mike O’Brien, Dara Torres, Sippy Woodhead, Rich Saeger, Janet Evans, Brad Bridgewater<\/strong> and Kristine Quance,<\/strong> just to name a few.\u00a0 At the Tokyo Olympics, the Nadadores were represented by Haley Anderson, Zach Apple, Michael Brinegar<\/strong> and Annie Lazor.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Schubert\u2019s career hasn\u2019t been without controversy. He was the subject of a lawsuit (since dropped<\/a>) and had an acrimonious split with USA Swimming<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Things have changed greatly since Schubert took over Mission Viejo as a 23-year-old in the early 1970s. But one thing that has kept him in the sport is the constant relationship between hard work and success, the cornerstone of his tutelage.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think what stays the same is, work works,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s a blue-collar sport, and people who are willing to work at it, whether you\u2019re a sprinter or a distance swimmer, the work is different but it\u2019s still up to the athlete to get the job done. When you stand on the blocks at the Olympic Games, all eight guys are probably equally compared, but it\u2019s the guys that are strongest mentally and do the work that are going to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
