Former Eagle standout Mark Liscinsky rejoins the Eagles coaching staff as head assistant coach for the 2007-08 year.

Last year, Liscinsky's work with the team's sprinters paid off as one his athletes swam the second fastest time in school history in the 50 freestyle and earned a U.S. National qualifying time in the event. Additionally, Liscinky's work with the IM'ers showed dividends as Kaitlin Moughty swam a career best in the 200 and established a new AU school record in the 400.

Both athletically and academically talented, Liscinsky set AU and conference records in the 100 and 200 freestyle, the 100 and 200 backstroke and the 200 IM. In his senior year he qualified for the NCAA's in the 100 and 200 freestyle, 200 backstroke and 200 IM while earning CSCAA Academic All-America honors. As a Freshman, Liscinsky was named Rookie of the Meet and in both his junior and senior seasons was awarded the Most Outstanding Athlete in the conference. Liscinsky completed his career having set six American University records including the 100 freestyle (44.61), 200 freestyle (1:36.75), 100 backstroke (49.87), 200 backstroke (1:45.85), 100 IM (short course meters) (57.72) and 200 IM (1:47.20). Additionally, Liscinsky is ranked in the all-time top-ten list in the 50 and 500 freestyle, the 100 and 200 breaststroke, the 200 butterfly and the 400 IM.

Liscinsky has also been a multiple finalist at the U.S. Senior Nationals, was a member of the 2003 U.S. World University Games team that competed in Korea and was a 2000 and 2004 US Olympic Trials Qualifier.
