Camp Philosophy
“Our aim is to provide you with the best swim camp experience?period. In 2007, for the first time, Husker Swim Camps will offer an all-inclusive camp format that combines the very best of what in the past has been our two separate and specialized stroke and training camp formats. No longer do our campers have to choose whether to focus on technique development or get that training camp experience, because now they will get it all in a single camp format. This change is designed to provide a more comprehensive, and, we believe, more attractive experience that includes two areas critical to the successful development of competitive swimmers. Along with the new format, Husker Swim Camps will continue to offer the very best in camp essentials and take great pride in providing unique and innovative elements to your water-time experience. Outside the pool, you will be exposed to a great lineup of presentations that complement the camp format. And, of course , we want to make sure you have fun along the way. In short, our objective is to provide a way for you to swim faster and increase your appreciation and enjoyment of competitive swimming. What you take with you will be memories of fun and friendship that will last a lifetime.”
About Coach Morales
A new era of Nebraska swimming and diving began on July 30, 2001, when three-time Olympic gold medalist Pablo Morales was named head coach of the women's program.
In his first few seasons at the helm, Morales has brought a wealth of coaching and swimming experience to the program and a spirited drive to return Husker Swimming to national prominence.
Morales came to Nebraska following a three-year stint as head coach at San JoseStateUniversity where he rebuilt the program and took the Spartans to the NCAA Championships after a 14-year absence. He was named 2000 Western Athletic Conference Coach of the Year for his coaching efforts during the 1999-2000 season.
As a swimmer, Morales won five Olympic medals. He is also a former world and U.S. record holder, U.S. Olympic Committee Sportsman of the Year (1992) and Sullivan Award finalist. A 1987 graduate of StanfordUniversity, he was arguably the greatest male swimmer in collegiate history, winning an NCAA-record 11 individual titles, while helping lead the Cardinals to three consecutive NCAA team titles.
Following a very successful 2003-04 season with the Huskers, Morales was named Big 12 Women's Coach of the Year.
Husker swimmers benefit from his vast swimming and coaching experience with proper stroke mechanics, elite-level training and peak performance. In addition, Coach Morales brings a demanding, yet positive, approach to coaching, instilling a sense in his athletes that more is always possible.
Pablo, along with his experienced staff, bring the highest level of instruction, coaching and guidance to all campers that makes the Husker Swim Camp an unforgettable experience for all who attend.
