Bob De Carolis, Oregon State director of Athletics, will step down from his position on June 30, ending his tenure that started in 1998 as associate athletic director of internal operation and ended with the 14 years as Director of Athletics.
“There is never an optimal time for decisions like this,” De Carolis said in a press release Monday. “Especially after an incredible journey of 17 years.”
The timing of De Carolis’s decision comes at a time where the OSU athletic program is making tremendous strides, not only on the court, but also in the construction of the athletic facilities.
