A NEW FULL-TIME ATHLETIC DIRECTOR

For the past seven years, Giles has served as the assistant Athletic Director performing the duties in the fall only. Tim Byrnes served as the spring AD.

In the past, the AD position was combined with that of the Dean of P.E. among other duties.  A first in FC Athletics, the new role for Scott will be to work as Athletic Director as a full time management position.

"We are very happy to have Scott working as our new AD. His hard work and commitment to this institution truly shows in all that he has done as a faculty member and will continue as a manager", Dr. David Grossman, FC Dean of Physical Education.
