My name is Jadyn (Jae) Dauphinais, and I am super excited to be returning as Head Coach this year! I am currently attending and swimming for the University of Evansville in Indiana. I will be graduating in May of 2026 with my Bachelors in Psychology with minors in Exercise and Sport Psychology and Business Administration, then going on to earn my Doctorate of Physical Therapy. This is my 5th year coaching Waterdogs and my 14th summer as a part of the team. My favorite part about coaching is not only teaching a lifelong sport, but watching kids become more confident while developing a love for the water. I can’t wait to see you all again this summer!
I’m Lyndi Chapman and this will be my second year as an Assistant Coach for the Waterdogs! I am currently a sophomore at Lee University studying exercise science with a minor in business administration. I am excited to have this opportunity again as I have been a part of the Waterdogs team the last 7 years and have enjoyed growing as a swimmer, teammate, and coach during those years. I am looking forward to seeing everyone in May!
My name is Asher Williams. I swam on the Waterdogs for seven seasons, with last summer being my senior year. This will be my first summer as an Assistant Coach. I am a student at East Tennessee State University, where I am majoring in Sport Management. Outside of class, I am a campus tour guide, and I compete on our club ultimate frisbee team. My favorite thing about the Waterdogs is the team culture. It is awesome to see older swimmers working alongside their younger teammates! I’m looking forward to applying what I’m learning in school to this program. Go, Waterdogs!
I’m Timothy Collier, a freshman ministry major at Lee University. I’m so blessed and excited to be an Assistant Coach for the team this summer. This team holds a special place in my heart because it’s where I learned to swim and developed a love for the sport that helped me enjoy nine fantastic years of competitive swimming. I’m looking forward to the season starting, meeting everyone, and coaching this amazing team!
