A six-time program record holder and the 2015 Wright State Athlete of the Year, he continued training for 2016 Olympic Trials at South Florida Aquatic Club. He made Trials in both breaststroke events and the 200 individual medley.<\/p>\n<p>From there, Aukerman coached at Triangle Aquatic Center as an age-group coach. Among his charges there was <strong>Claire Curzan.<\/strong> The TAC Titans won consecutive sectional age-group titles under his watch in 2019-20 and continued a streak of eight straight North Carolina age-group championship.<\/p>\n<p>Aukerman jumped into the college realm in 2021-22 as a volunteer assistant and interim director of operations for Ohio State. The Buckeyes won the women\u2019s Big Ten championship that year and finished in the top 10 at NCAAs. At Auburn last year, he helped produce 17 SEC Championship finalists and 21 NCAA qualifiers, helping the Tigers men improve by 105 points from the previous year\u2019s NCAAs to nab a 10th-place finish.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am thrilled to have Kile onboard with our program and work with our student-athletes.
