Bill Koppelman enters his second season as assistant coach of the TCU swimming and diving team.

Koppleman joined the TCU staff after spending last year as head coach of Cyprus High School in Magna, Utah, as well as serving as head coach of the Pirate Swim Club, a USA Swimming Club team.

Prior to his stint at Cyprus High School, Koppelman worked as a graduate assistant with the University of Utah swim team, and was a volunteer assistant coach at the University of Wyoming as an undergraduate.

Under Koppelman's tutelage, the Cyprus High School swimming program showed improvement, as the women placed fifth in the state and the men finished seventh. The club team also improved significantly, as the size of the team doubled and the number of state qualifiers tripled in Koppleman's one year.

During his time at Utah, Koppelman worked with 11 U.S. National swimmers, one Canadian National finalist, 17 All-Mountain West Conference swimmers and two NCAA qualifiers.

Koppelman earned a B.S. in mathematics at the University of Wyoming, and a master of mathematics at the University of Utah. Koppleman also attended Keene State College for a semester, where he was named All-New England in the 50-freestyle.
