Trevor Maida enters his fourth season as an assistant coach with the Wisconsin swimming and diving program in 2022-23.

In his three years with the 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 two of the last three 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.

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, while Eric Geunes received the Big Ten Postgraduate Scholarship.

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. While at Indiana, Maida had the opportunity to coach Olympic gold medalist and world record-holder Lilly King, who won her fourth straight NCAA titles in both the 100- and 200-yard breaststroke. He also worked with American record-holder Ian Finnerty, who repeated as NCAA champion in the men’s 100 breaststroke and swept the Big Ten breaststroke titles.

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.
