My name is Danny Koenig, and I am a college swimming recruiting expert. After serving as Team Captain of the University of Wisconsin Swimming & Diving program, I spent eight years as NCAA Swim Coach and Recruiting Coordinator, recruiting club swimmers to top academic colleges and universities nationwide.

Now, I guide high school prospects and their families on their unique recruiting journey, removing stress and uncertainty from an ever-changing process. With nearly 20 years of college swimming recruiting experience, I’ll be with you through every turn—right up to the final lap.

I work alongside athletes and families through the entire recruiting journey—bringing structure, strategy, and expert guidance. Together we’ll identify the right schools, stand out to coaches, and secure college swimming opportunities.

I’ll connect you with the right tools and resources, customize the experience around your goals, and manage the details of recruitment so you don’t have to. I’m on your team.

Through 50-minute Zoom sessions and ongoing support by text and email between meetings.

Personalized guidance and genuine partnership as teammates. I go on the journey with you—saving time, money, and energy.

College coaches expect athletes to take full ownership of their recruitment. I expect swimmers to be invested, proactive, and committed.

Between recruiting sessions, athletes should plan for 1-2 hours of homework—researching schools, drafting emails, updating profiles—and stay on top of logging all communication with coaches.

We often use a portion of the time to get tasks done like submitting questionnaires or drafting emails together.

Athletes meet with me on average more than a dozen times over the course of their recruitment, roughly eight times annually. Frequency of sessions adjust based on grade level, recruiting intensity, and each swimmer’s timeline.
