Coaches
Kirstin McCoy
Kirstin began competitive swimming at age five in Southern California and later swam at San Jose State University earning bachelor's degrees in Child Development and Psychology. She began her coaching career in 1999 as a head coach of a high school program in San Jose, CA, before continuing her coaching career in the San Diego area. She guided swimmers from early competitive levels to College State Championships, Zones, Sectionals, Futures, and Junior Nationals.
Swimming is also part of Kirstin's family life. She and her husband have lived around the world, including Japan twice, and have three sons, two who compete in swimming and one who plays hockey. In 2017 Kirstin founded Cedar Swim Club. She later took a sabbatical from coaching to focus on her family before returning to the sport.
As head coach of Cedar Swim Club, she focuses on building confident, hard-working athletes who learn to do difficult things, support their teammates, and carry those lessons beyond the pool.
Coaching staff
Keri Munson
Keri started coaching swim in 2002 in Salt Lake. For several years, she had the opportunity to learn skills, drills, and technique from some of the most successful swim coaches in Utah. She especially loves working with young swimmers. Her favorite part of coaching is helping each swimmer experience that moment when all of the hard work that we have put into learning a new skill comes together for them in the water.

Reuben is from Cedar City, where he swam for CSC, as well as Cedar High. He comes from a family of swimmers, who all did the same. He served a mission in St. Louis, Missouri. Soon after coming home he went back to SUU to study Kinesiology, and exercise science. He also returned to CSC and Cedar High, but this time to coach!
