Coach Kutz has been coaching with NOVA Aquatics of Virginia in the Richmond Virginia area since 2002 and before that with many of the top clubs in the Richmond area, coaching both youth and Masters swimmers for decades. Mark swam at the division 1 level at VCU and earned a degree in Health and PE and was captain of the swim team his last two years. Mark has coached many US National Masters Champions as well as world-record holders. 

He's also a Masters Swimmer himself. What Mark’s resume doesn’t officially show is that he’s encouraged and inspired young kids in the NOVA program who have gone onto be Olympic Champion’s and while he wasn’t the “coach of record” he worked with these champion’s when they were developing. 

Mark is a certified level 4 US Swimming coach. In 2012, he won USMasters swimming’s Kerry O’Brien Coaching award, which is given in recognition of coaches who have done a great job in building strong USMasters membership in local communities. He has contributed regularly to the US Masters Swimmer magazine.
