Swim with Annie Podcast Episode 2 | Passion for water. Conversation with Eileen Hall, Saint Michael's College Women's & Men's Swimming and Diving Head Coach & Aquatics Professional. Eileen Hall returns for her 14th season as head coach of the Saint Michael's men's and women's swimming & diving programs in 2023-24, and 15th overall with the teams. Hall, whose charges lay claim to every school swimming record, is the longest-tenured women's swimming & diving head coach in College history, and enters the year one dual-meet victory short of Dave Leonard's school record (57). Hall trails Jim Donoghue '70 by one year for the longest stint guiding the men. Hall began a four-year term on the NCAA Men's and Women's Swimming & Diving Rules Committee in fall 2021 as the NCAA Division II representative. She is also the College's aquatics director. Hall graduated from the NCAA Women Coaches Academy (2013) and has coached swimmers at a variety of levels, including at the University of Georgia's prestigious Bauerle Bulldog Swim Camp (2019). In summer 2016, she was the only woman invited to staff the Northeast Swimming Prospect Showcases in Bristol, R.I. Hall has earned her Level II certification through the American Swim Coaches Association (ASCA), and is also qualified as a coach with the United States Swimming Association. She has attended ASCA clinics in Florida, Massachusetts and New Jersey since 2007. A standout amateur swimmer, Hall was an All-America at Glens Falls (N.Y.) High School in 1986, and went on to earn an athletic scholarship at Division I Bucknell University. Hall held high school state records at Glens Falls until 2002, and was inducted into the Glens Falls High School Athletic Hall of Fame in 2009.
