BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana head diving coach Drew Johansen has been named the head coach for the U.S. Olympic Team for diving at the 2024 Paris Games, as USA Diving announced its full coaching staff this week.

Johansen will lead Team USA in a fourth-straight Olympics, serving as head coach since 2012. In that span, U.S. divers have totaled nine medals. Three Indiana University divers – Andrew Capobianco, Jessica Parratto and Carson Tyler – will compete in Paris.

Serving as Parratto’s coach, Jenny Johansen will join her husband on the Team USA staff. Together, the Johansens become the first married pair to coach for USA Diving at a Summer Games. Jenny Johansen was a two-time Olympian in 1996 and 2000, competing in both the 3-meter and 10-meter events in Sydney. Tyler will become the first U.S. male diver since that same year to participate in both individual events.
