Justin Creel

Coach

Email

Dr. Justin Creel is in his 7th year as a Glen Oaks coach but he is no stranger to Sea Lion territory. Justin role will unfortunately be reduced this season to more of a substitute status since he now has a "real job" that will make it difficult to make it to the pool.  I’m sure we’ll still see plenty on Dr. Creel on deck.  He grew up swimming for our team, holds several team records and for several years he has taught lessons at the club. Last year, Justin completed his PhD in Biomedical Engineering at UC Davis.  He did his bachelor’s degree at Cal Poly SLO in Materials Engineering and also swam at SLO for one season.  Justin is the Director of Marketing for Consensus Orthopedics located in Eldorado Hills.  Justin lives in Rancho Cordova.
