Hannah Saiz returns for a second season with the Kenyon coaching family. Saiz, a 2013 graduate of Kenyon, served as interim assistant before returning to training and competing as a professional athlete and volunteering her time with the Kenyon team. She also coaches for the local high school and club teams.
Â
During her own collegiate career, Saiz helped the Ladies swimming and diving program to three NCAA runner-up team finishes. She claimed 19 career All-America awards and, as a senior, won NCAA titles in the 200-yard butterfly, the 200-yard medley relay and the 400-yard medley relay in an NCAA record time. She was named the North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) Swimmer of the Year in 2013 and, one year prior, qualified for and competed at the U.S. Olympic Trials.

As a postgraduate athlete, Saiz continued competing and earned a spot on the 2016-17 U.S. National Team, finished Top 8 at the U.S. Olympic Trials in 2016 and won individual event titles at both the 2016 U.S. Open and 2016 U.S. Winter National Championships.
