Jordan Cordry (formerly Wolfrum) entered her seventh season as head coach of the UCLA Bruins women’s swimming and diving program in the 2025-26 campaign. She succeeded Cyndi Gallagher and was named the seventh head coach in program history on June 27, 2019. In her tenure, she has built consistent performance, guiding UCLA to five consecutive top-four finishes at the Pac-12 Championships and managing a dual-meet record of 26-21. In the Bruins’ inaugural Big Ten season in 2024-25, Cordry oversaw a campaign where six individual student-athletes qualified for the NCAA Championships, four relay squads advanced, and the team broke multiple school records in events such as the 100 breast and various medley relays.
Before joining UCLA, Cordry was on staff at Ohio State University from 2014 onward, serving as assistant coach and then associate head coach, where she oversaw recruiting, team culture, academics and athlete development, and contributed to dual meet successes and NCAA-level finishes. She began her coaching career at the College of Saint Benedict in Minnesota and had a stint as a volunteer assistant at Stanford University. As a student-athlete, Cordry competed for the St. Cloud State University Huskies in swimming, graduating with a degree in mathematics and a minor in statistics in 2009. Her analytical background meshes with a strong emphasis on student-athlete development, team cohesion and advancing program records.
