WOLFRUM

Head Swimming Coach 4th Season

St. Cloud State ‘09

Jordan Wolfrum enters her fourth season as head coach at UCLA in 2022-23. Wolfrum, who was most recently an associate head coach at Ohio State, was named the seventh head coach in program history on Jun. 27, 2019.

In three seasons so far at UCLA, she has accrued a 12-9 dual meet record and three consecutive top-four finishes at the Pac-12 Championships. Wolfrum succeeded Cyndi Gallagher, who retired after the 2018-19 season following a 31-year tenure as head coach.

The 2021-22 campaign was another solid one for UCLA, as the Bruins finished fourth at Pac-12s and sent a group of four student-athletes to the NCAA Championships. At NCAAs, Claire Grover placed 13th in the 50 free to earn All-America honors and become the first Bruin swimmer to score at the national meet since 2017-18. UCLA had 45 finalists at Pac-12s – including 11 A Finalists – highlighted by third-place results for Claire Grover in the 100 free and Hannah Butler in 1-meter diving. The Bruins also set school records in both the 200 medley relay and 400 medley relay over the course of the year, and finished first at the five-team UNLV Invitational from Dec. 17-19.

Despite a shortened training and competition schedule due to COVID-19, the Bruins continued to make strides under Wolfrum in 2020-21. UCLA posted a 2-1 record in dual meets during the regular season, with the squad’s only loss coming to eventual Pac-12 champion California. The Bruins capped off the regular season with a highlight-reel win over USC, clinching a 151-148 decision on the final relay of the two-day meet. It was UCLA’s first dual win over USC since 2007. The Bruins went on to finish third at Pac-12s, the program’s highest finish at the league meet since 2006. Highlights at Pac-12s included 14 “A” Finalists, two relay podiums, and a school record in the 100 fly from Sam Baron (51.65). UCLA sent a contingent of nine student-athletes to the 2021 NCAA Championships, including six individual qualifiers.

Her first year in Westwood was an inarguable success. The Bruins posted a 7-3 record in dual meets, opening the campaign with seven consecutive wins. UCLA would go on to finish fourth at Pac-12s, the program’s best finish since 2014, while producing five CSCAA All-Americans. The Bruins’ 400 medley relay team set a new school record (3:33.81) at Pac-12s, and five Bruins (three swimmers, two divers) would secure NCAA Championships qualification. UCLA also took care of business in the classroom, placing a dozen student-athletes on the Pac-12 Academic Honor Roll. Wolfrum was initially hired as an assistant coach at Ohio State in 2014 before being promoted to associate head coach prior to the 2016-17 campaign. She previously made coaching stops as a volunteer assistant coach at Stanford and as an assistant coach, associate head coach, and interim head coach at the College of Saint Benedict in St. Joseph, Minn.

During her five-season run in Columbus, the Ohio State women compiled an impressive 48-9 record in dual meets and finished top-25 at the NCAA Championships on four occasions. The Buckeyes finished with just one dual meet loss in three of her five seasons (2014-15, 2016-17, 2017-18), and finished third at the B1G Championships in each of the past two years.

Wolfrum also helped the OSU men – who began competition prior to 2017-18 – to a 12-4 record over two seasons and a ninth-place finish at this year’s NCAAs.

She had a hand in practically every facet of the Ohio State swim program, serving as the recruiting coordinator while taking the lead on compliance, team culture, academics, and budgeting. She also implemented a student-athlete development program centered on leadership and career growth.

On the pool deck, she worked mostly with the program’s middle distance swimmers, helping produce nine NCAA qualifiers and seven school record-holders.

Wolfrum had a brief but productive stint with Stanford, helping the Cardinal women to a secondplace finish at NCAAs in 2013-14. She worked extensively with the team’s breaststrokers, helping Katie Olsen to a pair of top-five national finishes. The Cardinal set a trio of American records that year and an NCAA record in the 400 medley relay.

Her first collegiate coaching stop came at the College of Saint Benedict, where she spent three years as an assistant coach and one as head coach. She helped the Blazers to a fourth-place finish at the 2012 MIAC Championships. During her tenure, she coached 11 All-MIAC swimmers, including a team-record eight in 2012-13.

As a student-athlete, she was a four-year letterwinner and two-time team captain at St. Cloud State. Wolfrum helped the Huskies to a Northern Sun Swimming Championship in her senior season and qualified for conference championships four times. She graduated with honors in 2009, receiving a degree in mathematics with a minor in statistics.

Wolfrum’s Career Coaching Record

TOM STEBBINS

Head Diving Coach 25th Season at UCLA 27th Season overall Yale ‘96

Tom Stebbins enters his 25th season as the head coach of the UCLA women’s diving team in 2022-23, a program that has had much success since his tenure in Westwood began. Stebbins was recently named the Pac-12 Diving Coach of the Year at the conclusion of three consecutive seasons (2017-19), making him just the second person ever to three-peat as the league’s top diving coach.

Most recently, Stebbins has helped Hannah Butler double-qualify for NCAAs in each of the past two seasons. Sophomore Katie Shaheen joined Butler as a double-qualifier at NCAAs in 2020-21.

Despite losing the program’s top two divers, UCLA diving was once again a force nationally in 2019-20. Junior Ruby Neave emerged as one of the top divers on the west coast, winning the 1-meter title at Pac-12s and finishing runner-up at the NCAA Zone E Championships. She was one of four Bruins who ultimately qualified for Zones, joining junior Alice Yanovsky and true freshmen Hannah Butler and Katie Shaheen.

Stebbins earned CSCAA Diving Coach of the Year honors in 2018-19, making him the second Pac-12 coach ever to take home that award. UCLA divers combined to score 75 points at the NCAA Championships, the most of any school nationwide and a new program benchmark. Under his tutelage, Maria Polyakova was named the CSCAA and Pac-12 Diver of the Year while Eloise Belanger scored more points (38) than any other diver at NCAAs.

In 2017-18, Stebbins guided Eloise Belanger to UCLA’s second straight Pac-12 Diver of the Year Award. Belanger won the 1-meter and 3-meter events at the Pac12 Championships, then finished second in three events at the 2018 NCAA Zone E Championships.

The year prior, he helped Maria Polyakova to the first conference Diver of the Year honor of his tenure. Before coming to UCLA, Stebbins served as head diving coach at Fordham University, where he coached two-time senior national qualifier Paul Delo, who won two Atlantic 10 titles each on the 1M and 3M. Stebbins also helped coach Delo to an undefeated record in the 1996-97 season.

Coach Stebbins’ Background

Stebbins was a four-year letterwinner at Yale University, a three-time NCAA Zone qualifier and a four-time All-Ivy League selection. While diving at Yale, he helped lead his team to the 1993 Ivy League co-title. In 1996, he won the Heaton High Point Award and was named the recipient of the Phil Moriarty MVP Prize. Stebbins graduated from Yale in 1996 with a degree in psychology. A native of Connecticut, he now resides in Playa del Rey with his wife Erika, daughter Reilly and son Owen.

The Stebbins Philosophy

“Luck sits squarely at the intersection of hard work and opportunity.”

Coach Stebbins believes that each person is in total control of creating her own luck. The UCLA Diving program stresses the need for the individual to be accountable to herself, her teammates, her sport, and her studies. With all of the wonderful opportunities presented to student athletes at UCLA, it is important that each person know that she is responsible for the decisions and directions that she chooses. This is the beginning of a lifelong process in which the student-athlete learns how to maximize herself academically, athletically, and socially. While the coaching staff hopes to steer this direction, it is the student-athlete herself that will determine how quickly she will achieve her goals.

Coach Stebbins believes, “We are all very fortunate to be part of the greatest athletic program in the country. How we choose to give back to that tradition should go well beyond the few moments each individual will spend competing in the Bruin Blue. Becoming a Bruin is just the beginning of a lifelong commitment to creating excellence in every facet of your life. As coaches, we are all here to enhance the early stages of that process, through our passion, dedication, and enthusiasm for the people whose lives we have the opportunity to touch.”

The Last Decade

The 2011-2012 season was keyed by Emma Ivory-Ganja, who was named Pac-12 Conference Newcomer of the Year for diving after a very successful freshman campaign which saw her finish third on both 3M and Platform at the conference meet. IvoryGanja also set a new meet record on 3M at the Pac-12 Championships and narrowly miss a spot at the NCAA Championships after placing fourth on Platform at the Zone E meet. Ivory-Ganja and 2011 graduate Winn also competed at the U.S. Olympic Trials. In 2012-2013, the UCLA diving team sent its first Bruin to the NCAA Championships since 2009 when Ivory-Ganja qualified by virtue of her fourth-place finish in the 3M at the NCAA Zone E Championships. At NCAA’s, Ivory-Ganja won the B Final of the 3M event and was also seventh in the Platform, to earn her First Team All-America status, and 29th in the 1M. Ivory-Ganja, the only diver to post three top-five finishes at the previous year’s NCAA Zones (fourth in Platform, fifth in 1M), was one of three Bruins to participate in the event. Vale’s best showing was 21st in the 3M, while Guzman’s top performance was 24th in the 3M. Montana Monahan qualified for the Senior Nationals, finishing 21st in the Platform event.

In 2013-2014, three Bruins qualified for the NCAA Zones in Guzman, Monahan and freshman Annika Lenz. Lenz was fourth in the Platform event, ninth in the 3M and 14th in the 1M at Zones, setting a personal best (329.80) in the 3M at the Pac-12 Championships. Lenz won four dual meet events and was named Pac-12 Diver of the Month for November. Monahan was 15th in the Platform at NCAA Zones, while Guzman was 16th in the 1M.

In the summer of 2014, Lenz won a silver medal in the Platform at the AT&T USA Diving National Championships with a personal-best and National Meet-best score of 312.60. She was the seventh-highest women’s point scorer, also competing in the 1M (15th), 3M (22nd) and Synchronized 3M (4th). Incoming freshman Maria Polyakova won a pair of silver medals at the FINA World Junior Diving Championships in September in the 1M and 3M, also placing third in the Synchro 3M.

In 2014-15, Maria Polyakova was named the Pac-12 Newcomer of the Year after an historic initial season in Westwood, which culminated in a fourth-place finish in the 3M at the NCAA Championships. She became the first Bruin to qualify for a championship final since 2013, posting the best showing ever for a UCLA diver at NCAA’s and the best Bruin finish at Championships since 2006. During her historic performance in the 3M, Polyakova broke her own school record twice with a 380.60 in the preliminaries and a 392.00 in the championship. Sophomore Annika Lenz, who set a UCLA school record in the Platform at the Pac-12 Championships (323.15), finished fourth at the NCAA Zone E Diving Championships in March.

In the summer of 2015, Polyakova won gold in the 1M, while also finishing second in the Synchronized 3M and fifth in the 3M, in the inaugural European Games in Baku, Azerbaijan. Polyakova also won the Women’s 1M at her 2015 Summer National Championships in Russia and finished ninth in the 1M finals at the FINA World Championships. Ciara Monahan qualified for August’s AT&T USA Diving Senior National Championships after her fifth-place finish in the 1M at the USA Diving Zone F Championships.

In 2015-16, Eloise Belanger was named the Pac-12 Newcomer of the Year after posting a runner-up finish in the Platform event at the Pac-12 Championships. She also placed third in the 1M and fourth in the 3M. The freshman’s standout debut season culminated in a second-place finish in the 1M event at the NCAA Championships. Her score of 336.00 in the finals set a new UCLA record in the event, previously held by Marisa Samaniego. Once again, Maria Polyakova had a stellar season, twice earning Pac-12 Diver of the Month honors and winning 12 of 14 regular season diving competitions. The Bruin sophomore captured the 1M crown at Pac-12s and went on to post two top-five finishes in the springboard events at the NCAA Championships. Junior Annika Lenz placed fourth in the platform event at Pac-12s. During the summer season, all three Bruins went on to compete at the Olympic Trials for their respective nations.

Honors were heaped upon the Bruins in 2016-17, with Maria Polyakova the most decorated of all. The junior was named Pac-12 Diver of the Year after a red-hot close to her campaign that began with her second Pac-12 championship in as many years. The Penza, Russia native took the 3M competition while reaching the podium in the 1M and Platform events en route to the Diver of the Meet award. Polyakova went on to set two school records at the NCAA Zone E Championships, posting scores of 398.75 and 339.05 in the 3M and 1M events, respectively. In all, the 2016-17 Bruins qualified four divers for the NCAA Championships after strong showings at Zones. Joining Polyakova were sophomore Eloise Belanger, senior Annika Lenz and junior Ciara Monahan. Polyakova went on to cap her remarkable season with a pair of top-five finishes, while Belanger scored points in the 1M and Platform competitions. Belanger and Polyakova were also named CSCAA All-Americans for their performances. Those two also made UCLA the only school to tally multiple Pac-12 Diver of the Month awards as Stebbins went on to capture his first Pac-12 Diving Coach of the Year honor.

Summer 2017 was a busy one for the globe-trotting Bruin divers, beginning with Polyakova reaching three final rounds at the FINA World Championships in Budapest, Hungary. Additionally, Monahan and Traci Shiver were joined by incoming freshman Alice Yanovsky at the 2017 USA Diving National Championships in Columbus, Ohio, while Polyakova competed alongside Australian newcomer Ruby Neave at the 29th Summer Universiade in Taipei. Polyakova went on to earn a bronze medal in the Mixed Synchro 3M.

Under his tutelage, UCLA had another banner year in 2017-18. Eloise Belanger won the program’s second straight Pac-12 Diver of the Year Award. She won the 1m and 3m titles at the Pac-12 Championships, then finished second in three events at the Zone E Championships en route to a pair of top-10 finishes at NCAAs. Traci Shiver, Alice Yanovsky, and Ciara Monahan all qualified for Zones as well. At the end of the year, Stebbins repeated as the league’s Diving Coach of the Year, a program first.

2018-19 was arguably the best season in Bruin diving history, leading to CSCAA Diving Coach of the Year honors for Stebbins. UCLA divers combined to score 75 points at NCAAs, a figure which led all schools and established a new program benchmark. The Bruins produced the 3M champion in Polyakova, as well as the highest-scoring diver of the meet in Belanger, who had 38 points across three events. Polyakova was the second-highest scoring diver at the meet with 37 points over two events. After the season, Polyakova was tabbed as the Pac-12 Diver of the Year while Stebbins garnered Pac-12 Diving Coach of the Year acclaim. Stebbins is the second person ever to threepeat as the Pac-12’s top diving coach. UCLA had four divers qualify for Zones, and came agonizingly close to sending a trio of divers to NCAAs as Traci Shiver finished less than a point short of qualifying on tower. UCLA dominated the diving portion of its meets all season, as a Bruin won 21 of 33 diving events the squad entered, including 16 wins in 21 events during the 2019 calendar year.

Despite a hefty amount of turnover that included four graduated seniors, 2019-20 was another standout year for UCLA diving. Ruby Neave, who didn’t compete her first two years at UCLA due to injury, broke through as one of the top divers in both the conference and the country, winning the 1M diving title at Pac-12s and finishing runner-up in the same event at Zones. She was the third consecutive Bruin to win the 1M crown at Pac-12s. Neave would eventually earn double NCAA qualification after placing sixth in 3M at Zones. The season was also marked by the emergence of true freshmen Katie Shaheen and Hannah Butler, who both improved markedly over the course of the season en route to Zones qualification. Butler went on to earn All-America honors after qualifying for NCAAs in 1-meter, and narrowly missed out on joining Neave in the double-qualifier club after placing 12th in 3M at Zones. Junior Alice Yanovsky gave the Bruins four Zones participants.

With a training schedule, competition schedule, and roster that were all heavily affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, UCLA still was able to make noise during the 2020-21 season. Two of three divers on the UCLA roster for the season ended up double-qualifying for the NCAA Championships thanks in part to top-five finishes at Zones; Hannah Butler placed fourth in 1M while Katie Shaheen placed fifth in the platform championship (both also qualified for NCAAs in 3M). Butler picked up a pair of first-place finishes over the truncated season (UCLA had just two duals and two diving invitationals in 2020-21), including a 3M win at Cal on Jan. 30.

KARISSA KRUSZEWSKI

Karissa Kruszewski joined the UCLA swim and dive program as an assistant coach before the 2019-20 season. Kruszewski most recently served as assistant coach and recruiting coordinator for men’s and women’s swimming and diving at UNLV.

Overall, UCLA has gone 12-9 in dual meets and finished top-four at Pac-12s in all three of her previous seasons on staff.

Kruszewski (pronounced kroo-SHEF-skee) helped the Bruins to a standout campaign in 2019-20, her first year on staff. The Bruins posted a 7-3 record in dual meets, placed fourth at the Pac-12 Championships, and qualified five student-athletes for NCAA Championships before the season was cut short by COVID-19.

Despite a shortened training and competition schedule due to COVID-19, the Bruins had another standout year under Kruszewki’s tutelage in 2020-21. UCLA went 2-1 in dual meets (including the program’s first win over USC since 2007), placed third at the Pac-12 Championships (the program’s best finish since 2006), and sent nine student-athletes to the 2021 NCAA Championships. The Bruins’ performance at Pac-12s was one of the program’s best in recent years, with 14 “A” Finalists and a pair of relay podiums. The Bruins put together a solid campaign in 2021-22, securing a third-consecutive top-four finish at the Pac-12 Championships. The Bruins had 45 finalists at the league meet (including 11 A Finalists) and set a school record in the 400 medley relay (3:32.53). UCLA went on to send four student-athletes to the NCAA Championships, highlighted by an All-American performance in the 50 free from Claire Grover, who became the first UCLA swimmer to score at NCAAs since the 2017-18 season.

Prior to arriving at UCLA, she spent three seasons at UNLV (2016-17, 2017-18, 201819), working primarily with middle distance and distance swimmers. As the recruiting coordinator for the program, she was responsible for building each of UNLV’s recruit classes while planning and managing all recruiting visits. Kruszewski also collaborated with the head coach to design and implement training programs for both the men’s and women’s squads.

In both 2017-18 and 2018-19, she helped produce the Freshman of the Meet at UNLV’s league championships, as Brad Gonzales accomplished the feat in 2018 after winning a WAC Championship in the 1650 free while Carissa Armijo was honored after finishing second in the 500 free at the 2019 Mountain West Championships. The Rebels broke three school records during Kruszewki’s tenure.

Prior to joining the staff at UNLV, Kruszewski spent one year (2015-16) as the assistant coach, recruiting coordinator, and academic supervisor at Cal State East Bay. That year, the Pioneers set four school records, notched 17 NCAA B Cuts, and placed six studentathletes on the All-PCSC Team. Cal State East Bay would go on to finish second at the 2016 PCSC Championships.

She started her coaching career as the head coach for the girl’s program at Oregon High School in Oregon, Wis. and for the men’s program at Stoughton High School in Stoughton, Wis. from 2013-15.

Kruszewski was a three-year letterwinner at the University of Wisconsin, earning Big Ten Academic All-Conference honors in all six of her semesters. She began her collegiate career at UC Irvine in 2008 where she was named a Scholar-Athlete.

The Murrieta, Calif. native earned her bachelor’s degree in sociology from Wisconsin in 2013, and received a certificate in organizational leadership and communication from UC Irvine in 2016. She completed her M.S. in organizational change leadership from the University of Wisconsin, Platteville, in 2020.

Dirks Pool at Spieker Aquatics Center

The Spieker Aquatics Center brings together all three of UCLA’s intercollegiate aquatics sports - men’s and women’s water polo, and women’s swimming and diving - to one venue. The state-of-the-art facility was made possible thanks to a generous lead gift from former UCLA studentathlete Tod Spieker and his wife, Catherine. Tod was an All-America swimmer at UCLA, competing from 19681971, and continues to successfully compete in Master’s Swimming.

The UCLA Athletics Department unveiled the Spieker Aquatics Center on Sept. 26, 2009, when the Bruin men’s water polo team hosted UC Irvine under the lights. Prior to that evening’s water polo match, the Athletics Department hosted a private reception at the new, state-of-the-art facility. In addition, Spieker Aquatics Center served as host to the 2010 MPSF Women’s Water Polo Tournament, marking the first time that UCLA had hosted a water polo tournament.

The Bruins’ aquatics center is the home to UCLA’s men’s and women’s water polo, and swimming and diving teams. The facility features a 52-meter by 25-yard all-deep water pool with a dividing bulkhead, allowing races to take place at varying distances (meters versus yards). The pool also features four platforms on a diving tower, at heights of three, five, seven and one-half, and 10-meter platforms, as well as one and three-meter springboards. The aquatics center also features a warming pool behind the tower for divers.

The main pool, Dirks Pool, is named after Carolyn Dirks, who provided the lead gift for the swimming pool. Dirks Pool will also be used for special use events and Masters Swim meets. The signature feature of the Spieker Aquatics Center is the diving tower, which sits at the pool’s west end. The east end houses the new scoreboard, an LED, state-ofthe-art piece of electronics that makes scores and statistics

Martin Jarmond

Director of Athletics

3rd year

UNC-Wilmington, ‘01

Martin Jarmond, a nationally recog nized leader in college athletics, has built an impressive track record of competitive excellence, innovative strategy and student athlete success.

A two-time recipient of Sports Busi ness Journal’s Forty Under 40 Award with 20 years in sports administration spanning three conferences, Jarmond is guiding UCLA to new heights through his culture of an E.L.I.T.E. mind set – Energy, Leadership, Integrity, Toughness and Excellence. Jarmond’s results-driven strategies combined with a relentless work ethic to elevate UCLA Athletics creates an exceptional experience for student-athletes and fans alike.

Jarmond was hired on May 19, 2020, as UCLA’s Alice and Nahum Lainer Family Director of Athletics, becoming the ninth athletic director in school history. Jarmond made an immediate impact on the Bruins, jumpstarting the Voting Matters Initiative, the first of its kind in the country which assisted student-athletes in discovering the tools needed to exact meaningful change through civic duty. Jarmond engineered a partnership between UCLA and Nike/Jordan Brand, becoming only the fifth Jordan brand school in the nation and the first partnership with Nike in UCLA history. The six-year agreement between UCLA and Nike provides for 22 of the 25 UCLA varsity sports with Nike apparel, while football, men’s basketball and women’s basketball don Jordan Brand. Jarmond exhibits a strong commitment to mental health awareness and his emphasis on diversity and inclusion was recognized in a 2021 SBJ award for being a national leader in diversity and inclusive hiring. He was the Pac-12 Conference representative to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Com mittee for 2021-22.

Through Jarmond’s instrumental leadership, UCLA Athletics is at the forefront of a rapidly changing collegiate athletics landscape. In the burgeoning area of Name, Image and Likeness (NIL), Jarmond launched new support for student-athletes, including “Westwood Ascent” a comprehensive NIL program designed to support UCLA’s student-athletes to build their personal brand and maximize their NIL opportunities. In addition, the launch of Westwood Exchange, a free business registry designed for companies, donors, fans and alumni that want to connect directly with UCLA’s student-athletes interested in capitalizing on their NIL, ranked in the top 3 in the country.

In June of 2022, Jarmond worked closely with campus leadership while playing a critical role in UCLA Athletics applying and being accepted for future membership in the Big Ten Conference. One of the most important announcements in the history of UCLA Athletics, the Bruins will join the Big Ten Conference in 2024.

Comprehensive work by Jarmond and his staff throughout the pandemic, ensured all Bruin teams could compete safely during their 2020-21 seasons. UCLA teams captured four conference titles and the men’s water polo team brought national title No. 119 home to Westwood. The men’s basketball team embarked on a remarkable journey which led to an appearance in the 2021 NCAA Final Four and the program’s first national semifinal appearance since 2008. UCLA finished 13th nationally in the 2020-21 Learfield IMG College Director’s Cup. These athletic achievements were balanced by record numbers of studentathletes earning spots on the conference all-academic squads, with 49 individuals earning a perfect 4.0 GPA for the Winter Quarter, and 131 student-athletes earning their UCLA degrees. For the first time ever, the Bruins produced multiple winners of the NCAA Elite 90 Award. Four student-athletes were recognized by CoSIDA as Academic All-Americans.

Jarmond came to UCLA from Boston College, where he served as the school’s Director of Athletics for three years. During his time there, he orchestrated the Eagles’ first-ever strategic plan, a comprehensive five-year goal to advance the program by fostering student-athlete formation, strengthening competitive excellence, increasing external engagement and enhancing facilities. The strategic plan was supported by BC’s first-ever athletics-only capital campaign, at the time, the largest campaign of any Atlantic Coast Conference institution at $150 million. Jarmond hired high-impact coaches in football, women’s basketball, softball, volleyball, swimming & diving, men’s soccer, women’s soccer and fencing. Jarmond served on the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Oversight Committee and on the John McLendon Minority Scholarship Foundation Board of Directors.

Prior to joining Boston College in 2017 and becoming the youngest athletic director of any Power Five institution at age 37, Jarmond previously served as deputy director of athletics at Ohio State, moving up the ranks after arriving as an associ ate athletic director for development in 2009. During his time at Ohio State, he was the lead administrator for a variety of sports, including football and men’s basketball, and directed external and internal relations and day-today operations. He also had responsibility for football scheduling, served on the NCAA Division I Women’s Golf Committee, and was a member of the inaugural College Football Playoff National Champion ship Advisory Group and the Rose Bowl Advisory Committee. As Ohio State Athletics’ chief advancement officer, Jarmond helped raise more than $120 million between 2010-2012.

Jarmond was also an assistant athletic director for develop ment for seven years at Michigan State, where he served on the athletic director’s executive leadership team. He was a key member of the $1.2 billion “Campaign for MSU” develop ment team and a liaison between Michigan State’s university development and alumni association leadership. Jarmond led the efforts to implement Scholarship Seating in football and Courtside seating in men’s basketball.

A native of Fayetteville, North Carolina, Jarmond, 42, earned a bachelor’s degree in communication studies from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. A two-year captain of the men’s basketball team, he led his team to the program’s first-ever NCAA tournament appearance in 2000 and earned Colonial Athletic Association All-Academic honors in 2001. He holds both a M.B.A. and a master’s in sports administration from Ohio University. Jarmond is married to Dr. Jessica Jarmond, a dentist. They have three daughters: Scarlett, Savannah and Serena.

Gavin Crew

Associate Athletic Director

7th Year UCLA ‘99

Gavin Crew was named Associate Athletic Director for Sports and Administration in April 2016. He has spent over a decade with the Bruins, from 2001-2005 and 2008-present.

Crew oversees seven sports in his role - men’s soccer, men’s volleyball, women’s swimming & diving, men’s cross country, women’s cross country, men’s track & field (indoor and outdoor) and women’s track & field (indoor and outdoor). Additionally, he supervises the Camps & Clinics office.

In his first stint in the UCLA Athletics Department, he oversaw the expansion of the Camps & Clinics office to a year-round business operation, managing the growing demand for athletic camp operations in Westwood.
