HEAD COACH JOHN HARGIS
JOHN
HARGIS Fourth Year HEAD COACH AUBURN ‘99
For just the fourth time in the 40 years of Penn State swimming and diving, it welcomed a new head coach. John Hargis took over the program as the first new coach in 10 years and led both the men’s and women’s squads to solid seasons in 2008-09 and enters his fourth season in 2011-12. This past summer, Hargis served as an assistant on the U.S. Swimming squad for the 2011 University Games in China. Hargis accompanied Nittany Lion women’s backstroke-specialist Amy Modglin to the competition. Modglin was the second PSU student-athlete to compete under Hargis’s tenure as former NCAA Champion Patrick Schirk earned silver during his trip to the University Games in 2009. His first year at the helm was a highly successful one, leading both programs to national rankings throughout the season. The women’s program was as high as 15th heading into the NCAA Championships where six Nittany Lions competed along with five on the men’s side. Vincent Reydams, Patrick Schirk, Jason Goldner, Basil Kaaki, and Brian Alden all received Honorable Mention AllAmerican to lead the Lions to a 32nd place finish. The women placed 38th led by two Honorable Mention All-American finishes from Kelly Nelson and one from Kaitlin O’Brien. In addition, the men’s and women’s squads combined to break an astonishing 14 school records in Hargis’ first season. Since then, Hargis has been able to recruit top notch classes to help Penn State return it to a Big Ten Championship-caliber program. In 2011, Hargis’s men’s team swam to sixth place at Big Ten, which included an All-Big Ten Second Team performance by Mitch Scherer. Hargis also helped coach the 200 medley team to All-America honors when it touched the wall in ninth place. Hargis returned to Happy Valley where he was an assistant coach at Penn State from 2003-06 before moving onto Arkansas-Little Rock where he was named head women’s swimming coach in February of 2007. He was also the head coach and the chief executive officer of the Little Rock Arkansas Dolphins

club swimming program. “John has demonstrated that he has the ability to continue the success of our swimming program both athletically and academically,” said Director of Athletics Tim Curley at the time of his hire. “He has been a swimmer at the highest level, having won an Olympic gold medal, and he also has a large array of experience as a coach, both at the collegiate and the club levels. We are extremely pleased to welcome John and his wife, Lauren, and son John back to Happy Valley and are prepared to help him keep our swimming programs moving forward” “We are delighted to have John Hargis return to Penn State as our head coach of men’s and women’s swimming,” said Susan Delaney-Scheetz, Penn State Associate Director of Athletics and Senior Woman Administrator at the time of Hargis’s hiring. “John’s knowledge, enthusiasm and passion for swimming and Penn State will enable him to take the program to new heights.” With Hargis at the helm, he became just the second head swimming coach at Penn State since the men’s and women’s swimming programs were merged into one following the 2000-01 season. He is Penn State’s fourth head women’s coach of all-time and just the sixth head coach in men’s program history. “I am glad to be back in the blue and white of Penn State and it is exciting to be back in the tradition of excellence that Penn State provides, both athletically and academically,” said Hargis prior to his first season as head coach. “Both my family and I are excited to once again be part of the Penn State culture and we look forward to continuing the tradition that has been set by those before us in the swimming program.” Hargis left his assistant post at Penn State in September of 2006 to take over the Arkansas Dolphins premier swim club, which was also his former club team. In that role, he directed the program to the overall team

state long course title in 2007, winning both the men’s and women’s team title for only the second time in program history. He also led both the men’s and women’s teams to the overall team state short course title in 2008, securing the Dolphins their first back-to-back combined state titles in their 48 year history. He joined Arkansas-Little Rock as an assistant coach in November of 2006 before being elevated to head coach in February of 2007. While heading the Trojan program, which competes in the Sun Belt Conference, the women’s team was recognized by the Collegiate Swimming Coaches Association of America for having a team GPA of over 3.0 in both the fall and spring semesters. While with the Nittany Lions, Hargis was on the staff that led the women’s team to back-to-back Big Ten Championships in 2005 and 2006. He coached several NCAA, Olympic Trials and U.S. Nationals qualifiers and also directed all aspects of men’s recruiting. Hargis was instrumental in helping recruit 2008 NCAA Champion Patrick Schirk to Penn State. He also assisted with several other aspects and day-to-day operations of the program, including the creation and implementation of a training regimen for both the men’s and women’s sprinters, breaststroke and IM swimmers. Prior to arriving at Penn State, Hargis was an assistant coach at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas for two years during the 2002-03 season where he also coached NCAA, Olympic and U.S. Nationals qualifiers and guided the Mountain West Conference Male Swimmer of the Year. He was the head age group coach for the Raleigh Swimming Association club team for two years prior to his stint at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas. Before that, he served for three years as an assistant to the athletic director at his alma mater, Auburn University. A native of Little Rock, Ark., Hargis is a 1999 graduate of Auburn with a degree in health promotion/sports management. Hargis is one of the most touted swimmers to ever come out of the state of Arkansas. For the Tigers, he was part of a national championship team in 1997 and a member of the 200 medley relay team that broke NCAA, U.S. Open and NCAA Meet records in 1997. He was also a part of the NCAA champion 400-medley relay team in 1997. A three-time Southeastern Conference champion in the 100 butterfly, he also held the SEC record in that event and was a 12-time All-American. He owns an Olympic Gold Medal, which he earned at the 1996 Atlanta games as part of the U.S. 400 medley relay team. He also won the 100 fly at the U.S. Olympic Trials in 1996. Hargis was inducted into the Arkansas State Swimming Hall of Fame in 2001 and was selected as one of Arkansas’ 100 Greatest Athletes of all-time. Hargis resides in State College with his wife, Lauren, and two young sons.

WORKMAN
Aaron Workman joins the Nittany Lion staff for his second season in 2010-11. Workman comes from an established background including his most recent position as assistant swim coach and recruiting coordinator at the University of Pittsburgh. “As a head coach, you always keep [someone like Aaron] on your radar,” said Hargis. “I’ve had my eye on Aaron for the last three years he’s been at Pitt. He’s recruited back-to-back top-25 classes. His sprinters have continued to compete well and continued to improve.” During his time at Pittsburgh, Workman was in charge of assisting in all aspects of team preparation, including practices and weight training. As the recruiting coordinator, he was able to sign two top-25 and honorable mention classes. For the past three years, Workman has also been involved with Team Pittsburgh Aquatics. While there, Workman organized all aspects of one of the largest meets in Allegheny Mountain Swimming and developed practice agendas for the competitors. Before working at Pittsburgh, Workman held the same duties as assistant swim coach and recruiting coordinator at UNLV from 2005-2007. He helped coach his team to three straight Mountain West Conference championships while also recruiting the 18th best men’s recruiting class in the country. Not only did his teams have a great athletic track record, but they also excelled out of the pool, consistently ranking in the top 20 academically in the nation. Workman’s college work began early as he served as the assistant swim coach at Wittenberg University from 2003-2004 and the head swim coach at Hollins University from 2002-2003. At Wittenberg, Workman coached two NCAA All-Americans and a top 20 Division III team. Not only has Workman succeeded as a coach, he was also a very successful swimmer at the University of Kentucky where he graduated in 2001 with a Bachelor of Science in Broadcasting. Workman was a four-time All-American, fourtime academic All-SEC performer and an academic All-American in 2001. “[Aaaron has] helped take that program to the top of the Big East,” said Hargis. “As a young guy, he’s someone who has always intrigued me. We feel very lucky to have him.”
