Lochte swaps lanes for Missouri State coaching gig paying about $34/hour
Olympic swimming legend Ryan Lochte has joined Missouri State University’s swimming staff as an assistant coach, earning about $34 per hour (roughly $30,000 annually with potential bonuses). After falling in love with Springfield during a visit with his girlfriend, Gillihan, Lochte proactively reached out to coach Dave Collins and decided to pursue coaching as a new career path, combining hard-nosed training with his passion for helping younger swimmers.
