  • USMS Profile Jason H Eaddy - USMS Swimmer

Jason Eaddy grew up swimming in Florida, originally learning to swim by dodging alligators in Orlando’s Lake Virginia. He graduated to the Rollins College pool next to the lake, joining the Blue Dolfins swim team and coaches Harry & Kevin Meisel. 

Jason joined St. Petersburg Aquatics and coach Fred Lewis just prior to turning 13 in 1989. Swimming for SPA & St. Petersburg High School, Jason was a Senior National qualifier in the 800 & 1500 freestyle. His senior year, Jason was an All-American, winning the 500 free and placing second in the 100 butterfly at Florida High School State Chmpionships. Both swims broke school records and still stand 29 years later. At Princeton under coach Rob Orr, Jason continued to specialize in distance freestyle and was a four-year letter winner. His senior year, he captained Princeton's team to a undefeated EISL dual meet championship.

After college, Jason took a few years to find his way back to serious swimming, eventually joining Cambridge Masters Swim Club at Harvard and continuing his love/hate relationship with Blodgett Pool from college. With CMSC, Jason was fortunate to swim under Rob Berry, Bek Getman, Steph Morowski, and Scott VanKuilenberg. Focusing primarily on butterfly as a masters swimmer, Jason started racing at both USMS and USA Swimming meets, placing 5th in the 200m fly at the U.S. Open in 2002 and returning to USA Nationals in 2004. Along the way, he set World Records in the 100 & 200 SCM butterfly in the 25-29 age group and National Records in 50 SCM butterfly and the 200 LCM butterfly.

In addition to bringing lifelong fitness and a renewed passion for the sport, masters swimming also brought Jason his wife Jenny Mooney (a Rhode Island Aquatics Hall of Fame inductee), meeting her at the New England SCM Championship Meet in December 2002. They currently live in Sudbury, Massachusetts. These days, Jason typically spends his weekends as a USA Swimming official watching their two sons compete.
