John Hargis, a 1996 Olympic Gold Medalist and 12-time All-America swimmer, has been named the University of Pittsburgh’s new head swimming and diving coach, Pitt athletic director Scott Barnes announced.
Hargis spent the past three years as associate head coach at Auburn, his alma mater. He previously was the head coach at Penn State from 2008-13.
“John has the pedigree, passion and track record of success that will serve as a strong foundation for excellence at Pitt,†Barnes said. “We have the shared vision of academic achievement, winning championships and graduating our student-athletes. I have no doubt that John will help take Pitt swimming and diving to new and exciting heights.â€
“I am tremendously excited to be joining the Pitt family,†Hargis said. “I want to thank Scott Barnes, Wendy Meyers [Executive Associate Athletic Director and Chief Financial Officer] and the search committee for giving me this great opportunity. The more I visited with Scott and the committee, the more impressed I became with their enthusiasm and vision for Pitt Athletics and the swimming and diving program. I’m equally excited about what we can accomplish at Pitt and can’t wait to share the vision with our student-athletes. Hail to Pitt!â€
