Jacob Beach joined the Colorado College athletic department as an assistant coach for the men's and women's swimming programs in the summer of 2019.
Beach came to Colorado Springs from his alma mater, Ohio Wesleyan University, where he served as an assistant coach for the men’s and women’s swim teams since 2016.
A four-year letterwinner in swimming at Ohio Wesleyan, Beach was a part of a number of top-five relays in varying distances and events at OWU. Despite starting his swimming career in high school, he earned All-Ohio honors before swimming in college.
Prior to his coaching stint at Ohio Wesleyan, Beach was an assistant coach at Olivet College for one year. He also has coaching experience as a masters swim coach at LifeTime Fitness in Dublin, Ohio, an assistant coach with the Delaware Ohio Racing Club and an assistant manager and lifeguard for the city pool system in his hometown of Upper Sandusky, Ohio.
Beach, who received a bachelor’s degree in journalism and a minor in politics and government from Ohio Wesleyan in 2014 and earned a master’s degree in coaching education from Ohio University in 2020, will serve as the Tigers’ recruiting coordinator in addition to his on-deck coaching duties.
