ACC leading the charge for women in athletic administration
Football coach Pat Narduzzi sat on the committee charged with finding a new athletic director for Pittsburgh. His favorite candidate, Heather Lyke, ended up getting the job.
Narduzzi rattles off the reasons she stood out. “Heather’s really sharp. She’s very passionate, she’s got energy. She’s got vision and she’s not close-minded. She understands every situation’s different. She’s a former athlete. Where she’s worked in the past has developed her into a great AD.”
A few minutes later, he adds something more. “Did you hear about how she got passports for the entire Eastern Michigan program?”
