Tim Socha came to Washington in December, 2013, as the Huskies' strength and conditioning coach. In 2021, he'll serve in that same role for his eighth season at Washington.
Socha plays a key role in the Huskies' success and has been vital in the team winning two of the last four (2016, 2018) Pac-12 Championships (as well as the North Division title in 2020) and appearing in a New Year's Six Bowl for three years in a row, including in 2016, when the Huskies earned a spot in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl and the College Football Playoff. For his efforts, he was named the FootballScoop.com National Strength Coach of the Year in 2016.
In Socha's time at Washington, his players have earned All-America honors 21 times and first-team All-Pac-12 honors 34 times, while 24 Huskies have been selected in the NFL Draft.
Socha came to Washington after eight seasons at Boise State as the Broncos' head strength and conditioning coach. He joined the Boise program prior to the 2006 season, just in time for the Broncos' 13-0 season that was capped with an historic win over Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl.
Before heading to Boise State, Socha spent two seasons as assistant director of strength and conditioning for football at Louisville. The Cardinals went to bowl games in each of his two seasons there, going 20-4 during his tenure.
Before going to Louisville, Socha worked as a strength coach at Wyoming for three seasons and as a graduate assistant at Auburn from 1999 to 2001.
A four-year letterman offensive lineman at Minnesota (1995-98), Socha earned a bachelor's degree in kinesiology with a minor in coaching in 1999. He also received a master's degree in exercise physiology from Auburn in 2001. After completing his college career with the Golden Gophers, Socha began his coaching career as a student assistant in the weight room following his senior season.
Socha, who attended Ashwaubenon High near Green Bay, Wis., and his wife Jessica are the parents of a daughter, Alexa, and a son, A.J.
