Tom Radtke joined the Lindsey Wilson coaching staff in February 2026. He comes to Lindsey Wilson University from Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, where he served as the head coach of the Lake Country Swim Team. His responsibilities included organizing daily training sessions, managing program operations and guiding assistant coaches.
At the collegiate level, Radtke served as an assistant and volunteer coach at California State University, East Bay, from 2011-13. He also coached at Whitworth University (Wash.), where he earned his bachelor’s degree in kinesiology.
While at Cal State East Bay, Radtke helped develop numerous NCAA Division II national competitors before moving on to the University of Maryland, where he coached the aquatic club’s junior and senior groups.
“As an age-group coach for the majority of his 16-plus-year coaching career, I look forward to him starting to recruit the incoming high school class of 2027,” said head coach Alicia Kemnitz. “He has great connections in the Midwest USA Swimming club scene, and I expect that will provide our team with an increased number of domestic swimmers, which is something we really want.”
Radtke will also oversee many of Lindsey Wilson’s age-group aquatic programs, including swimming lessons, the SKY at Lindsey Wilson USA Swimming team and the BRAC recreational league.
