Andy Grevers enters his second season as an assistant swimming and diving coach at the University of Missouri.
Grevers brings a strong collegiate and club coaching background to Columbia. He served three years as a volunteer assistant at Northwestern, where he worked with national champions Mike Alexandrov, Kyle Bubolz, Bruno Barbic and his brother, 2008 U.S. Olympian Matt Grevers. He also led Northwestern's Wildcat Aquatics Club program, which produced three national records and 27 state records under his watch.
"Andy brings a lot of the same traits as Randi (Vogel), but only on the male side of the equation," Rhodenbaugh said. "Andy has had an interesting trek through coaching. He started coaching at a young age while he was in college and has been exposed to a great deal of international experience while working with his brother, Matt. He followed his brother through the Olympic trails and other international events and that experience will be beneficial to our program. We have added two outstanding coaches to our staff."
Grevers is the co-creator of Northern Illinois University's club swimming program and served as captain of the team during his time in DeKalb. He swam as a prep for Lake Forest High School where he was a state finalist and team captain.
The Illinois native actually began his coaching career for the Lake Forest Club team when he was just 15-years old. His sister, Carolyn, is the head coach at Lake Forest High School, while his mother, Anja, is a well-respective swimming coach in the Chicagoland area.
