Tom is old school. He will never be the one to push you, he leaves it up to you if you want to get better. This style doesn’t work for everyone, as I have seen a number of divers remain stagnant and never push themselves to get better. I happened to be rather self-motivated, so this style worked for me as I climbed up the ranks of our division 1 conference to eventually be crowned champion. He was a guidance counselor for the better part of thirty years, and this makes him extremely easy to talk to. His knowledge of the sport comes from his decades of coaching experience, which is not saying that it isn’t in-depth, but it’s very observational-based, and not very grounded in theory or actual physics behind the sport. He cares immensely about your well-being and he’s the main reason I stayed at the school for as long as I did.
