USA Artistic Swimming Extends Contract of CEO Adam Andrasko
USA Artistic Swimming on Wednesday announced it is extending the contract of CEO Adam Andrasko, who has been in charge since 2018.
The organization’s board of directors made the announcement. It will allow Andrasko to lead the organization through the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.
“We are excited and confident to have Adam lead USA Artistic Swimming through 2029,” USAAS president Kimberly Kohut said in a press release. These next few years will be transformational and historic for our organization as we make progress toward LA 2028 with Adam’s leadership. We are looking forward to our continued partnership.”
Among the headline accomplishments was a silver medal in the team competition at the Paris Olympics in 2024, the first for the U.S. in 20 years. It was the first time the senior team qualified in that event in 16 years.
From the press release:
Not only has Andrasko made a lasting impact at the National Team level, but he has also continued to elevate USA National Meets and within USAA’s membership, creating opportunities for local clubs to compete against the nation’s top athletes. Unlike many CEOs, he can often be found front and center, serving as the MC at events, celebrating emerging talent, and ensuring that athletes, coaches, and spectators all enjoy a world-class experience.
“Thank you to the board of directors and membership for their continued confidence in me,” Andrasko said. “It has been an honor to lead our organization for the last seven years. It is the inspiring athletes at every level, the passionate coaches, dedicated officials, and committed parents that motivate me every day. I am grateful for the opportunity to be the CEO as we build toward a home Olympic Games. The opportunities to make USAAS better than most could imagine are right in front of us, and with your help and support, we will seize them.”
Andrasko was hired in 2018 after varied professional experience. He played football, worked for six and a half years with the United States Olympic Committee (where he started as an intern) and spent nearly three years as a member services director for USA field hockey.
