Mason Storm
Head Coach
Email
Coach Storm is in
his third year as the Head Coach for RDAC. As an athlete he
swam for Perry Meridian High School and the University of
Indianapolis where he was a four year varsity athlete. At the end
of his college career, after a brief job with Ocean Rescue, Coach
Storm began coaching at Martinsville High School, where for two
years he led the Artesians to 5 school records and the first 2
Conference Indiana individual/relay titles in school history. In
his time there he also formed the Martinsville Swim Club (MART). In
the spring of ’06 Coach Storm resigned from Martinsville to
accept the job of head coach for the 150 member Alaska Pacific Swim
Club (APSC) in Anchorage, Alaska. In his year there he had the
opportunity to manage and coach a larger swim club to their first
senior champs title as well as many individuals’ honors
ranging from best times to state championships. After a year there
it became evident that it was time to move back closer to
home.
Four months later Coach
Storm accepted the Pike/RDAC position. Since his arrival
Coach Storm has led Pike to seven school records and Red Devil
Aquatic Club to hundreds of top 10 team records. Coach
Storm would like to thank all the members of RDAC, parents and
swimmers, for making this a truly great place to coach. He knows
what it takes to be successful in this sport and is excited as RDAC
is eagerly pursuing being excellent both in and out of the pool. GO
RED DEVILS!!!
