Hoover — formerly the Associate Director of the Ivy League where he oversaw public information efforts for eight years — has a background in transitioning the image and awareness of organizations. At the League, he transformed its website into a broad-based outlet, addressing a variety of audiences.
At its height, the site was drawing more than eight million page views per month before spinning off several related sites, including those focused on black history, women’s history, the Olympics and the League’s 50th anniversary. Several of his written pieces — primarily those penned for the League’s black history website — have won district and national awards from CoSIDA, the professional organization for publicists of college athletics.
A 1986 graduate of the University of Dayton, Hoover has also worked very closely with the Penn Relays, an event he has now served for 20 consecutive years.
