"I would like to thank Joel Nielsen for the opportunity to continue to serve our student-athletes and coaches in this leadership role," said Glaus. "His dedication and vision for our student-athletes' holistic success rivals any program in the country and I am grateful to be able to assist this department in developing well-rounded students and citizens. We have an exceptional staff in place and the academic progress of our student-athletes will continue to be our number one priority."
