Jeffrey Vlass will join the Stags' coaching staff as a graduate assistant coach beginning with the 2025-26 season. Vlass completed his Fairfield swimming and diving career during the 2024-25 season after four years of competition.

The Summit, N.J. native enjoyed a great deal of success in the classroom as well as in the pool. He earned multiple berths to the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) All-Academic team including his senior season while also being actively engaged on campus in the Office of Admissions.

Vlass also excelled in multiple events with the Stags, swimming primarily the 100 and 200 breaststrokes as well as the 200 and 400 IM. Vlass is the school record holder for the 200 meter breaststroke with a time of 2:20.57. He opened the 2024-25 campaign by taking first in the 200 breaststroke in each of the team's first three events, namely the Fairfield Invitational as well as dual meets against Bryant and Providence.
