Connor Beaulieu

Connor Beaulieu was named the head coach of the Amherst College men's and women's swimming and diving program in July 2023.

Beaulieu returned to his alma mater after spending the previous 13 months as an assistant swim coach at Georgetown University. At Georgetown, Beaulieu helped guide the Hoyas men's program to a Big East championship in 2023, where they set five school records in the pool.

Prior to that, he coached at Yale University for three years. He made an immediate impact in his first season. In 2020, he helped the men's 200-yard freestyle relay team win the Ivy League championship, set a new school record and qualify for the NCAA Championships. In 2022, Beaulieu guided one swimmer to a fifth-place mark at the women's NCAA Championships and helped the women's team to a second-place finish at Ivy Championships.

Prior to Yale, Beaulieu served as a volunteer assistant coach at the University of Texas, helping the Longhorns to a pair of top-10 NCAA finishes. He spent two seasons at Texas, lifting the Big 12 Championship trophy both times. In his first season, UT placed sixth at the NCAA Championships and improved to a fifth-place finish in 2019. In each of his two years, Texas swept the Big 12 Swimmer, Diver and Newcomer of the Year awards.

Beaulieu has also spent time with Connecticut College and Caltech prior to his success in the Big 12. In the 2016-17 season, he helped the Connecticut College women's team to its first top-10 NCAA finish in school history and mentored 11 All-Americans. With Caltech, Beaulieu helped the Beavers break 21 school records and capture the women's conference title for the first time in program history.
