At Cornell
Jordan Lieberman was named an assistant coach for the Cornell men's swimming and diving program in July 2016 and played an instrumental role in the program’s success in his first season.
Lieberman helped the Big Red to a fifth-place finish at the Ivy League championship in 2017, tied for the program’s best finish since 2009. In his two seasons at Cornell, 54 swims have joined the school’s all-time top 10 chart, rewriting four records in the process. In addition, Alex Evdokimov won the 100-200 breast double at the conference meet in both seasons and earned a total of four All-America honors along the way with Lieberman assisting in his training.
Prior to Cornell
Lieberman spent the 2015-16 campaign as a volunteer assistant coach for the Texas A&M women, helping the Aggies win the Southeastern Conference title and place fourth at the NCAA Championships. Under the direction of Hall of Fame head coach Steve Bultman, who also served on the coaching staff for the 1988 (Seoul, South Korea) and 2012 (London, England) U.S. Olympic Teams, Lieberman worked with three 2016 Olympians. The team produced 12 individual and three relay first-team All-America performances. The team's 13 NCAA qualifiers tied for most in the nation.
While coaching at Texas A&M, Lieberman also assisted at the Aggie Swim Club. He worked in all aspects of training with a 25 swimmer senior group, including water and dryland training, technique and race strategy feedback. During his time, the club produced a pair of All-America performers and its first-ever Olympic Trials qualifier.
He previously spent a season as an assistant coach at Occidental College, helping produce two All-America performances. His swimmers broke two conference and eight school records and had six all-conference swims.
Lieberman has served as a coach at various camps and clinics, including two summers as a visiting coach at Stanford.
