This coach is awesome!

Samantha has been coaching competitive swimming since 2006. A San Antonio native, she began her coaching career at Alamo Area Aquatics immediately after graduating high school, continuing in that role throughout her college years.

In 2011, Samantha relocated to Austin and joined Great Hills Country Club, where she was instrumental in founding and launching the Great Hills Aquatic Rush (RUSH) swim team. As the creator and driving force behind RUSH, Samantha has played a pivotal role in shaping the program’s philosophy, structure, and success—both on deck and behind the scenes.

Her coaching experience spans all ages and skill levels, from teaching swim lessons to 3-year-olds, to training high school competitors and adult athletes. She is also passionate about athlete development beyond the pool, frequently integrating CrossFit methodology into the team’s dryland training to enhance overall strength, mobility, and performance.

Samantha’s leadership, vision, and dedication continue to be the foundation of RUSH’s growth and community impact.
