Coach Justin Stoffel currently serves in his 19th season as associate head swimming coach. Dating back to 2000, the Pointers Men’s team won 23 consecutive Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (WIAC-2023) titles. The Pointers Women’s team won WIAC titles in 2000, 2001, 2006, 2007, 2010 & 2011. Leading up the pandemic, the Pointers placed 11th at the 2018 Division III NCAA Swimming & Diving Championships.
A native of Stevens Point, Stoffel has coached collegiate, high school, USA and YMCA swimming programs over a span of 22 years. His athletes have won 47 individual state titles, set seventeen state meet records and earned 11 individual NCAA All-Americans, 27 individual honorable mention NCAA All-Americans and a combined 44 NCAA All-American and honorable mention relays.
Stoffel and his wife, Erin, also own and operate the highly successful Impact Aquatics Group LLC Swim Camp. The primary focus of stroke refinement and physiological training stems from Stoffel's previous experience coaching at the Texas Longhorn Swim Camp under U.S. Olympic coaches Eddie Reese and Kris Kubik.
Stoffel earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from UWSP in Physical Education and Educational Sport Leadership. Stoffel is an associate lecturer at UWSP and has taught courses in physical education, wellness, sports psychology, anatomy and physiology.
Stoffel also serves as the UW-Stevens Point aquatics director, Pointers Swim School director and is a member of the UWSP Athletics Hall of Fame committee.
As founder & Director of the UWSP Main Set Campaign, Stoffel collaborated with retired (1965-1997) UWSP swimming & diving head coach Lynn “Red” Blair (2020) to update the UWSP Aquatics Center. Their combined efforts (2016-2018) generated over $125,000 to replace starting blocks, scoreboards, lane lines and an updated record board. The program is currently working to generate funds toward full endowment.
Stoffel resides in Stevens Point with his wife, Erin, son, Matias (13), and daughter, Jerra (11).
