Trevor Maida was tabbed to join the swimming coaching staff at the University of Louisville in August of 2023. Maida spent four seasons as an assistant coach with the Wisconsin swimming and diving program.

Last season, the Badgers’ men's swim team finished 23^rd at the NCAA Championships with 27 points, marking their best finish since 2017. Wisconsin earned 10 All-America honors at the championships. The Badger women finished 15th in the team race with 100 points, marking UW's best finish at the national meet since 2017.

In his four years with the UW program, Maida has been instrumental in helping the Badger men and women return to the upper tier of Big Ten. The Wisconsin men have placed fourth in the Big Ten in three of the last four seasons, the team's highest finish in almost 20 years. The Badger women have logged a top-20 finish at the NCAA championship in each of the last two seasons. This summer, Maida coached Taiko Torepe-Ormsby to tie the New Zealand National Record and qualify for world championships in the 50-meter freestyle in a time of 22.11

Highlights from his stint with the Badgers include coaching school record holders in the 100 back, 100 breast, 200 freestyle relay and the 200 medley relay. He had a hand in coaching the UW 400 medley relay and the 200 medley relay teams to NCAA honorable mention All-American status, the first scoring relays for the men since 2017. The 200 medley relay finish marks the first time the men had scored in that event in 19 years.

In 2019-20, Maida and the Wisconsin staff garnered one relay Big Ten Championship (800 Free Relay), three individual Big Ten Championships (Beata Nelson – 200 IM, 100 Back, 200 Back), broke seven school records (Women's 100 Fly, 400 Medley Relay, 800 Free Relay; Men's 200 IM, 200 Medley Relay, 400 Medley Relay, Men's Platform), 12 CSCAA All-Americans, and Beata Nelson was named the Big Ten Medal of Honor recipient.

Maida spent the 2018-19 season as a volunteer assistant coach at Indiana, where he helped the Hoosiers sweep the men’s and women’s Big Ten titles for the first time in school history. Maida also assisted in the Hoosiers’ recruiting efforts and served as the program’s social media director.

Prior to Indiana, Maida began his collegiate coaching career by spending two and a half seasons as a student assistant at St. Bonaventure, his alma mater. After an injury effectively ended his career as a swimmer during his freshman year, Maida transitioned to the deck and served as the Bonnies’ primary distance coach while also assisting head coach Sean McNamee in a variety of roles ranging from scheduling to recruiting.

Maida is a native of Hauppauge, New York. He earned a bachelor's degree in Sports Studies with a cognate in Exercise Science at St. Bonaventure. He and his fiancée, Morgan Frering, reside in Louisville.
