Longtime Murray State AD Ward resigns Friday

Murray State University athletic director Allen Ward stepped down from the position yesterday. In a statement Ward said: “I’m humbled by the success we’ve achieved and all we’ve been able to accomplish together as a team for the past 13 years. Racer Nation will always hold a special place in my heart.” Ward’s last day will be July 27. Women’s golf coach Velvet Milkman has agreed to serve as interim AD until a national search can be conducted.
