James Carsey
James Carsey begins his sixth year with our Swimming and Diving program. Commonly referred to as ‘Carsey’, James has been instrumental in preparing our women to be champions in the pool. Since joining our program, Coach Carsey has helped lead our women’s team to five straight undefeated dual meet seasons in the MAC, and to four of five conference championships – this is no coincidence. Carsey’s innovative and unique approach to strength training - as it relates to swimming - has been instrumental in improving the athleticism, the power and the general strength of our athletes. Coach Carsey comes to Miami University after spending two years as the head strength coach for Ashland University, where he earned his Bachelors of Science as well as a graduate degrees in Sports Science. He is certified with the National Strength and Conditioning Association as well as the Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Coaches Association and is a certified Sports Performance & Conditioning Coach for the USA Weightlifting Association.
