CEDAR FALLS — The University of Northern Iowa will introduce its new director of athletics today at 2 p.m. in the McLeod Center.
This morning, former UNI athletic director Troy Dannen announced on Twitter that David Harris, a senior associate athletic director at Iowa State, will succeed him. Dannen left UNI late last year to take the AD job at Tulane University.
Harris, outgoing Montana State director of athletics Peter Fields and Minnesota State-Mankato AD Kevin Buisman were the three finalists for the position.
Buisman, a Marion native who served in athletic administration at UNI from 1989 through 2002 when he took over at MSU-Mankato, announced Tuesday morning that he has withdrawn his name from consideration.
