UPDATED: Patrick Kraft Named New Boston College Athletic Director

Update (Wed. Jun 3, 11:11 AM): Boston College has confirmed Patrick Kraft has been named athletic director.

Patrick Kraft, currently the athletic director at Temple, is expected to be named the new athletic director at Boston College. Yahoo! Sports’ Pete Thamel was the first to report the news on Twitter.

We profiled Patrick Kraft here on BC Interruption (which can be found here), but he does bring a bit of experience improving facilities on Temple’s campus. He also has a history of significant fundraising, and also notably ushered the Temple men’s crew and women’s rowing programs out of a period of uncertainty, a skill that may come in handy in the wake of COVID-19 cuts.
