Head coach Chris Plumb from Carmel Swim Club will lead the team, joined by assistant coaches John Long (Indiana Swim Club/Indiana University), Katie Robinson (Alto Swim Club/Stanford), and Jake Shrum (Cavalier Aquatics/Piedmont Family YMCA/University of Virginia).
"Carmel Swim Club sets a standard for success as a USA Swimming club, due largely to Chris' influence on deck for over 20 years," said USA Swimming Chief Operating Officer and interim Chief Executive Officer Shana Ferguson. "His club leadership and international experience make him a perfect fit to lead this team as our athletes close out the 2024 calendar year on the international stage in Budapest."
To support competition on the international stage, USA Swimming brings specialized medical staff to assist athletes in and out of the water. This year, medical staff will include Physician Dr. Ankit Shah, athletic trainer Cami McCallum, and licensed massage therapists Jeff Kuelling and Emily Robinson.
