#7: Southwestern AD Ken Ralph sat down with College.town's Anthony Grassi to discuss the Pirates' fundraising success and his role in those efforts, the department's growth and much more. Here are some of his most notable comments…
➤ Having served as an AD at other DI and DIII institutions, how involved is he in fundraising? “I'm actually a little bit less engaged in the fundraising piece at Southwestern than I've been at some of my other stops. One of the things that I think is really important, it's needed for athletic directors to understand is don't insert yourself into the full fundraising picture for the campus itself. I don't want to go ask somebody for $50,000 if there's another ask on the table for $5M.”
➤ How is he communicating and pitching the Southwestern vision to donors? “Donors are going to give to their passion. And the biggest thing you have to do is you have to create a storyboard. You have to be able to sell that vision of this is what we have and think about how exciting this is. You have to elevate their excitement level and that's how you can push them out of their comfort zone and elevate their gift amounts.”
➤ As athletics has grown to comprise 40% of the total population across 20 sports and over 500 student-athletes, Ralph: “We haven't done enough talking about what athletics means and what athletics can do not just for the president of the campus, but for the future. … When I took the job, I said, ‘Well, this place is a sleeping giant. It's a gorgeous campus and an amazing location. You're right in a pool of so many great athletes within a three-hour drive of you. If Southwestern ever decides to get after this, it's going to be unstoppable.’ And I think we're right at the front edge of that and it's really exciting.” (link)
#6: The DIII Softball Committee has submitted its recommended changes to the NPI dials that would go into effect September 1, 2027. The committee is recommending the quality win bonus decrease from 54 to 52, quality win bonus multiplier increase from 0.5 to 0.55 and the threshold for retained wins grow from 12 to 15. The committee feels these changes would incentivize scheduling more quality teams and have the NPI be a more comprehensive representation of a season's body of work. (link)
#5: University of New England will go ticket-free this academic year after previously charging for football, basketball and hockey games. (link)
#4: Four Hanover women's swimming student-athletes have filed a class action Title IX lawsuit over the discontinuation of its program earlier this year. The student-athletes have also filed an emergency motion seeking to preserve their program and all women's sports at Hanover. Plaintiffs attorney Arthur Bryant: “Hanover's elimination of its women's swimming team is a flagrant violation of Title IX. According to the most recent publicly available information, women were 50.34% of Hanover's undergraduates in 2024-25, but they were given only 34.86% of the opportunities to participate in varsity sports. Hanover needs to add around 170 opportunities for women to reach gender equity. It should not be eliminating any women's teams.” (link)
#3: Manchester is set to depart DIII and join the Crossroads League (NAIA), pending acceptance into the NAIA. If approved, the Spartans would officially join the league in 2027-28. President Stacy Young: “Throughout this process, we were seeking more than athletic competition. We were looking for partners who share our values and our belief that athletics should be an extension of an institution's educational mission. The Crossroads League's commitment to faith, character development, academic excellence and student success made it an exceptional fit for Manchester. We are excited to begin this new chapter and become part of such a like-minded community.” (link)
#2: St. Mary's (MD) selects Susquehanna AD Sharief Hashim as its new VP for Athletics, starting October 5. President Rhonda Phillips: “Sharief brings a strong record of leadership and a clear understanding that athletics and recreation are integral to the educational experience and the broader mission of the institution. His commitment to student success, relationship building and strategic leadership will be tremendous assets to St. Mary's College. I am especially pleased to welcome him back to Maryland and look forward to the contributions he will make to our campus and our community.” (link)
#1: Alfred announces former Knox Interim AD/former McDaniel/Swarthmore/Alvernia AD Adam Hertz as its next AD starting September 14. VP for Student Experience Kim Harvey: “Adam distinguished himself throughout the search process as a collaborative leader who understands the important role athletics plays in student development, campus engagement and institutional success. His commitment to student-athlete achievement, both in competition and in the classroom, aligns strongly with Alfred University's mission and values. I look forward to partnering with him as we continue to strengthen Saxon Athletics and further advance a vibrant and connected student experience at Alfred University.” (link)
