The 13-time All-American swam her collegiate career with Wisconsin from 2016-2019.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Beata Nelson has been a constant presence in Madison, and we&#8217;re proud to formally add her to our coaching staff,&#8221; Brown said<dfn><\/dfn>. &#8220;Few people understand what Wisconsin means more than she does. She&#8217;s one of the best underwater kickers the sport has ever seen and brings elite-level experience that&#8217;s invaluable to our team. More importantly, she has a deep passion for helping student-athletes grow, both in and out of the pool. Her connection with our athletes and her commitment to this place make her an incredible asset to our staff.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Verona, Wisconsin native is one of Wisconsin&#8217;s most successful swim athletes both in the pool and in the classroom. During her time at Wisconsin, Nelson tallied 13 All-America honors, was a nine-time Big Ten Champion, claimed three individual National Championships at NCAAs, a two-time Big Ten Swimmer of Championships, and was named Big Ten Swimmer of the Year and the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association (CSCAA) Women&#8217;s Swimmer of the Year in 2018-29. Academically, Beata Nelson was also an Academic All-Big Ten honoree throughout her career, received the Big Ten Medal of Honor, and a three-time CSCAA Scholar All-American.<\/p>\n<p>Internationally, Nelson is a two-time member of the US National Team. At the World Aquatics World Cup, Nelson attained nine gold medals, six silver, and five bronze medals throughout her career.<\/p>\n<p>From 2021-2023, Nelson served as a volunteer assistant coach with the Badgers where she assisted in with every-day practice planning, facilitated workouts with non-traveling student-athletes, and assisted with camps and clinics.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/category\/college\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">More College News<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW206143418 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW206143418 BCX8\">\u2014 The above press release was posted by Swimming World in conjunction with Wisconsin Athletics<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW206143418 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW206143418 BCX8\">.
