Hawaii Adds Ashley Dyer as Assistant Coach
Hawaii on Thursday announced the hiring of Ashley Dyer as an assistant coach for the men’s and women’s swimming and diving team.
Dyer swam at the University of Mary Washington, a two-time team captain and a conference champion in the 1,650 freestyle for the Division III program. She graduated in 2024 with a bachelor’s degree in psychology with a minor in sports management and added her master’s degree in business administration.
She has coached since 2021 with the Stingrays USA Swim Team, a USA Swimming Bronze Medal club in 2024. She interned with Mary Washington’s swim team staff and coached at camps hosted by the University of Virginia, Texas A&M and Texas. The native of Chesterfield, Va., spent three seasons as an assistant coach for her summer league club, Woodlake hurricanes, before taking over as the head coach in 2022.
“Our program is honored to bring Coach Ashley Dyer to the Duke Kahanamoku Aquatic Complex,” head coach Steve Allnutt said in a press release. “She will assist our team while pursuing her graduate studies in Kinesiology and Rehabilitation Sciences at UH-Manoa. Though Ashley just finished her competitive career last season, she has already put together varied and extensive coaching experience at the club and college level, in addition to working across the country at various elite swim camps. Her initiative and drive for excellence will make an immediate impact on our student-athletes.”
