It was clear to Christopher Schlegel's parents that at a young age he loved the water.  After successfully escaping the baby pool gate enough times, his parents decided it was time for him to take lessons.  Chris began swimming at the age of four at Hillandale Swim and Tennis.  Chris grew up swimming at RMSC & JFD and playing soccer competitively year round in Montgomery County.

His coaching career began at Potomac in 2007. Chris brings an emphasis on sound fundamentals, hard work, progressive stroke mechanics, getting better each day and most importantly having fun. He is most known for his ridiculous meet outfits, over the top enthusiasm, and leading his favorite cheer "is this not the swimming pool".

Outside of Potomac, Chris is the head age group coach at All Star Aquatics in Bethesda, MD.

Max Jamison was an MCDL diver ever since he was 6 years old, and competed for Regency Estates Swim Club every summer up until he was 18 years old. As a diver, Max attended All Stars several times in a variety of different age groups, and was a constant face at meets and practices for his team. Max also dove for the Winston Churchill High School Swim and Dive team as a junior and a senior, and has attended a variety of clinics throughout the years to enhance his diving. As a coach, Max started as a junior coach when he was 17, and then was an associate coach for 4 years following, in which time he became well versed in the methods and techniques required to instruct divers. He graduated from Towson University in December 2022 with a B.S. in Psychology, and is now applying to medical schools with the goal of becoming a physician. 

Staci is very excited to be joining the PO coaching staff this year! She has been coaching for the last 10 years with RMSC and coaches Quince Orchard High School during the winter season. Staci coached for several years with Darnestown in the summer.  When not on the pool deck, Staci is teaching 5th grade at Lake Seneca Elementary School in Germantown. Staci is excited to bring her love of coaching to all the swimmers at Potomac!
