Head Coach
Jackie Hoglund
Jackie has been passionate about competitive swimming since the age of eight. She began her journey with our rivals, the Newton Swim Team, before moving on to the New England Barracudas, a U.S. Swim Club, and eventually competing at the Division III collegiate level at Middlebury College. Today, she is the proud mom of four current or former swimmers—Ellie (17), Tessa (13), Drew (13), and Livvy (9). After serving three years on the WSA board, Jackie is excited to step into the role of Head Coach this season. Whether cheering from the stands or coaching on the pool deck, she brings energy, experience, and a lifelong love of swimming to the team.

Her passion for working with kids—both in and out of the pool—drives her excitement to return this year as a coach for Wellesley Swimming.
