In 1996, he accepted a position as men’s swim assistant coach at the University of Utah, before moving on to the women’s program at the University of Iowa in 1997 as an assistant. After a one-year tenure with the seventh-place Lady Hawkeyes of the Big Ten, McGihon accepted the head men’s and women’s position at UC San Diego. McGihon is a Level 5 ASCA coach, which is the highest level of certification for coaches in the United States. In 1999, he was named both the men’s and women’s swimming Coach of the Year at the Pacific Collegiate Swim Conference Championships. Since then, he has been named either the Men’s or Women’s Coach of the Year an additional four times.

At the 2004-05 NCAA Championships, McGihon directed the women’s team to a thirdplace finish and a Division II best fourthplace finish for the men’s squad.

Although he had talked of breaking the national record of 43.30 that he set last year in Houston, Perdew wasn’t disappointed in his final time. “I always focus on beating the people next to me-I take pride in that,” said Perdew when it was over. “When it’s all said and done, I don’t want people to think of me as the fastest sprinter, but the best racer. That’s what it’s about-racing.” Sophomore Alex Henley, another Triton who knows a little about racing and winning, couldn’t quite reach the winner’s circle Saturday, but her school record-breaking (1:58.79) second place finish in the 200 backstroke helped spark the UCSD women into bronze medal position. With wins in the 400 individual medley and 200 butterfly already under her belt (as well as a second in the 200 IM), Henley had dead aim on No. 3, leading up to the 150-yard mark, but just couldn’t hold off defending event champion Yuan Qing Li of Drury, who got to the wall less than half a second quicker. In program order, the Triton women also got

point-scoring efforts from freshman Beth Dong (5th/1,650 freestyle/17:19.74), junior Anju Shimura, the winner of the consolation final in the 200 backstroke (2:02.16) and the hard-charging trio of senior Cari Cunningham (2:18.74), sophomore Neda Nguyen (2:19.95) and freshman Casey Adams (2:20.89), who were fifth, sixth and 12th respectively while turning in career bests in the 200 breaststroke. Even with all of that, UCSD needed a fifth place finish from the team of Shimura, Jessica Ferguson, Amber Tan and Henley in the final event, the 400 freestyle relay (3:28.15), to stave off West Chester (PA) by 4.5 points for third place. Cunningham, one of the team’s co-captains, savored the moment on both a personal and team level. “That’s been our objective, top three, and we worked so hard the last two days to get there,” she said. “Having to come from behind made it more rewarding. We got down and really had to fight our way back.” The men’s team got on the board early Saturday with senior Jereme Barnett-Woods (7th/15:45.05) and junior Chris Baier (15th/15:59.36) each collecting points in the 1,650 freestyle. Both scored in all three NCAA distance freestyle events. The Langland brothers ably backed up Perdew in the 100 freestyle as senior Todd claimed eighth (45.46) and sophomore Blake grabbed 13th (45.69).

2009-10 Year in Review Perdew Wins Third 100 Freestyle Title; Women Third, Men Seventh At NCAA Championships (continued) Pablo Carrillo finished 16th (2:10.55). Resilient freshman diver Tyler Runsten recovered from a “failed” dive on his first attempt to make the three-meter finals and eventually wind up sixth with 477.95 points. Sophomore teammate Patrick Cohen placed 13th. Perdew nearly added an improbable capper to his legacy, teaming with both Langlands and Sam Stromberg to finish second in the last race of the Championship, the 400 freestyle relay. Sitting third following Blake Langland’s third leg, Perdew nearly ran down the eventual winner from Wingate (NC), clocking a school standard of 2.58.49 while getting edged out of the gold by just .22 seconds.

Mercedes O’Brien was a key relay member of the fourth-place 200 medley (29.06 split) and the fifth-place 400 medley (1:05.04 split) at the 2010 NCAA Division II National Championships. In retrospect, McGihon gave his troops high marks. “We got off to a slow start here, had some adversity and it would have been easy to just cash it in,” said McGihon. “But this team showed a lot of fortitude and had some great efforts up-and-down the lineup tonight. I’m really pleased with how we finished.”

Alex Henley and Dan Perdew led the Triton men’s and women’s swim teams to a third-place and seventh-place finish at the NCAA Division II National Championships.

CHAMPIONSHIP NOTES Perdew’s five individual NCAA crowns leaves him third on the all-time UCSD men’s list behind Travis Miller (1991-94), who posted nine and Bill Kazmierowicz, who recorded seven between 1984 and ‘87. Miller, who won the 200 backstroke four times is the only other male swimmer to win the same NCAA event three times. One unbelievable statistic from Perdew’s star-studded UCSD career-he never won a relay at the NCAA Championships.

Runsten’s diving “adventures” were somewhat ironic since he actually “failed” his first dive in the prelims by doing too much, adding an extra twist...His second dive was the same as the first, but with the very twist that he got marked down for on the first try. ”I was shocked and furious,” said Runsten, “but I new exactly what I had to do-make every single dive. I was determined to reach the finals.” The women’s third place finish marked the seventh time in eight years that they have ended up in that spot. This was the third year in a row the men have been seventh. As is NCAA Championship tradition, the Tritons were easy to spot, sporting their “Saturday night” Hawaiian attire...Before the meet, seniors from all of the participating schools were recognized on the deck...Perdew, Barnett-Woods, Carrillo, Todd Langland, Cunningham and Karla Holman represented UCSD.

Athletic Programs Athletic Performance & Sports Medicine

wo integral parts of the UC San Diego athletics department are the Athletic Performance Program and the Sports Medicine Program, both of which provide a tremendous advantage to all 23 of the UCSD intercollegiate sports. The Athletic Performance Program is geared toward teaching each student-athlete how to achieve the highest level of athletic development through enhancement of all components of strength and conditioning. Athlete workouts are planned and monitored out by Rudy Thomas, UCSD’s Director of Strength and Conditioning. Thomas brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to Triton athletics and represents the only full-time strength and conditioning coach in the CCAA. The Tritons work out in the RIMAC weight room, which is over 12,000 square feet in size and features state of the art equipment. The UCSD Athlete Performance Program is truly designed with the student-athlete’s enhancement in mind. Very few programs at the Division II level have such expertise and first class facilities at the disposal of the student-athlete, helping to further distinguish the Triton Athletics Department as one of the premiere intercollegiate programs in the country. The UC San Diego Sports Medicine Center is dedicated to the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of athletic-related injuries suffered by Triton studentathletes. Under the supervision of head athletic trainer Kevin Messey MS, ATC, CSCS and his staff, UCSD athletes receive the highest quality medical care and access to an extensive network of physicians and other medical specialists. The rest of the training room staff is comprised of two full-time ATCs, two graduate assistant ATCs and an average of 10 athletic training students. The UCSD athletic training room is a clinical site for San Diego State University’s accredited athletic training education program, where some of the athletic training students fulfill their clinical experience. Additionally, the UCSD Sports Medicine Center offers a wide variety of options for examination and rehabilitation. From acupuncture to a group of six highly specialized sports medicine, family practitioners and orthopedic surgeons, the UCSD training room has a multitude of options at your disposal to get you healthy and back on the field of competition in no time.

Community Community Outreach

he UC San Diego Department of Athletics is committed to actively participating in the community through a variety of outreach events and services. Student-athletes from 23 sports participate in a wide range of service and outreach programs in and around the San Diego area. In 2003-04 the Tritons began the “Team Up!” program. This program assists local elementary schools that do not have a physical education component in their current curriculum. UCSD student-athletes provide healthy physical activity and create an environment for elementary school students that foster positive thinking and team building. The program was run at the Del Mar Heights Elementary School in the morning hours prior to school starting and during the students’ lunch periods during the past two years. Triton student-athletes make the holidays brighter for 12 families in the San Diego area on an annual basis, providing a plethora of gifts and holiday cheer. Triton teams paired up and each tandem purchased presents, food, and goodies to deliver to their adopted family before the holidays. Families were selected by the Neighborhood House Association which runs the Head Start programs throughout San Diego County. Studentathletes contacted the families to find out what special presents the children wanted, as well as what sort of clothing or other needs could be met. Teams delivered the presents in person and spent time with the families, often playing games with the children. Families each received approximately $300-$500 worth of gifts, depending on the number of children. Presents ranged from a bike for one child to clothing and food for the parents. In conjuction with the California Collegiate Athletic Association as the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, Triton student-athletes have gone to work to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation in each of the last three years. The student-athletes held a bake sale during the Annual Sun God Festival on the UCSD campus. Each team brought baked goods for a sale in the evening prior to the festival’s main event. The goal at each CCAA member institution was to raise $1 per student-athlete. Triton student-athletes far exceeded this goal, raising over $1,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation in 2005. Additionally, the Intercollegiate Athletics Department holds an annual Blood Drive to benefit the American Red Cross. All coaches, staff and out of season student-athletes participated in the blood drive, while those student-athletes who were in season recruited other students on campus to donate blood on their behalf.
