Trinity Names Reid Athletic Director

Trinity is pleased to announce that Wendy Reid has been named athletic director. Previously, Reid had been director of athletics communications at the College.

Reid replaces Mark Hanna, who has served Trinity for 18 years in several different capacities and is leaving to pursue opportunities outside higher education.

“Wendy brings a wealth of athletics administrative experience to this role, including having served in multiple Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference (CCAC) and National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) institutions,” said Trinity’s Vice President for Student Life & Title IX Coordinator Becky Starkenburg. “Her knowledge and skills in small-college athletics will serve the department and the College incredibly well. She has exceptional decision-making and leadership skills that will benefit all aspects of our athletics operations.”

Before coming to Trinity, Reid worked in the athletics departments for Olivet Nazarene University, Calumet College of St. Joseph, and for the CCAC. She is a graduate of Mount Vernon Nazarene University.

Said Reid, “The Trolls community is a special place, and I am excited for the opportunity to serve Trinity in this capacity. I’m looking forward to building on the foundation that Mark, whose leadership has shaped the College and impacted so many lives here, has laid.”
