These teams won 115 conference championships or finished top-eight in NCAA national championships in 20 different sports. They constructed or renovated athletics facilities totaling over $50 million and became one of the elite Division III colleges in terms of first rate comprehensive athletics facilities and team success.

Don DiJulia, Saint Joseph's University
One of the most respected administrators in college athletics, Don DiJulia closed out his storied Saint Joseph's University (SJU) career at the end of the 2017-18 academic year, which was his 50th overall in college athletics, and his 35th as Saint Joseph's athletics director over a span of two terms. From his beginnings as a student-athlete to his lengthy career as an administrator, he truly exemplified the Jesuit ideal of being a "man for others."

He served 30 consecutive years as SJU's athletics director after he returned to Saint Joseph's in 1988. In 2012, he was promoted to vice president for athletics/director of athletics. DiJulia also served as the Hawks' athletics director from 1976 to 1981. All told, DiJulia's affiliation with SJU spans six decades, from his time as a student to the present.

Following his retirement from his role as AD, DiJulia assumed the role of Special Assistant to the President, serving primarily as an advisor and representative of the University and of the President on campus, to alumni and with many external constituents.

He is a member of the Saint Joseph's Athletic Hall of Fame, the Big 5 Hall of Fame and the ECAC Hall of Fame. It was also announced in 2018 that the Atlantic 10 would sponsor the Don DiJulia Athletics Director Internship, to be awarded annually to a candidate aspiring to become an athletics director, who will serve a 10-month apprenticeship for the Atlantic 10 Conference.

DiJulia oversaw tremendous growth in the university's athletics programs. During his tenure, five varsity programs were added, a new weight training facility built, athletics fund drives initiated, and athletics facilities have been updated and created. But at the center of his efforts was the enhancement of the student-athlete experience in a variety of programming efforts built around "Developing Everyday Champions."

He was extremely involved in the intercollegiate athletic community, serving on the NACDA Executive Committee, Atlantic 10 Administrative Committee, as well as the conference's Finance Committee and Branding Committee.

A two-sport athlete as an undergraduate in baseball and basketball, DiJulia was a member of the 1964-65 SJU basketball team which compiled a 26-1 regular season record and a top-10 national ranking.

Gene Doris, Fairfield University
In his 23 years at the helm of Fairfield University athletics, Gene Doris helped guide the Stags into the national spotlight. Under his leadership, Fairfield claimed over 100 conference championships leading to 35 NCAA postseason berths. During his tenure, the Stags success extended beyond the playing field as Fairfield led Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) institutions in graduation rate and NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR). In addition, Fairfield claimed 10 combined Commissioner's Cups, winning both the Men's and Women's Commissioner's Cup in the same year four times. The Stags consistently held an NCAA Graduation Success Rate over 90 percent with several teams garnering NCAA Public Recognition Awards on an annual basis.

Under Doris' direction, Fairfield was the host site for numerous NCAA Women's Basketball Tournaments and was the stage for multiple NCAA Men's Ice Hockey Tournament matchups at Webster Bank Arena. Because of Doris' efforts to bring NCAA postseason contests to the Bridgeport, Connecticut area, he received the Constituent Supporter of the Year Award in 2004 from the Coastal Fairfield County Convention and Visitors Bureau.

A 2016 inductee in the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Hall of Fame, Doris also received the 2010 Division I Northeast Athletics Director of the Year Award and the 2013 Fairfield University Distinguished Faculty/Administrator Award. A former NACDA Executive Committee member, DI-AAA ADA Past President (2015-16), ECAC Past President and member of multiple MAAC and NCAA Committees during his career, Doris also previously served as the chair of the NCAA Men's Lacrosse Committee. In 2018, he was the recipient of the DI-AAA ADA Gary Cunningham Lifetime Achievement Award.

Holding both a bachelor's and master's degree from Fordham University, Doris' career in athletics began as both a basketball and baseball coach at Archbishop Stepinac High School in White Plains, N.Y. and junior varsity baseball coach at Archbishop Molloy High School in Jamaica, N.Y. After his stint as a coach, he was named an associate athletics director at Fordham University, as well as assistant basketball coach under Richard "Digger" Phelps. Prior to his arrival at Fairfield in 1994, Doris was the athletics director at Marist College for five years, during which time the number of intercollegiate athletics teams grew from 14 to 20.

In total, Forkum administered to the needs of over 400 student-athletes who competed in the Big 8 Conference. Under his guidance, SRJC teams won over 35 conference championships, 10 Nor Cal titles and five state championships during his seven-year tenure. The Bear Cubs finished in the state top-three 15 times in seven different sports.

Jack McDonald, Quinnipiac University
Jack McDonald spent the majority of his career in athletics administration as the director of athletics and recreation at Quinnipiac University. Hired in the fall of 1995 to oversee Quinnipiac's transition from Division II, the school proceeded to build a dual-sport facility for basketball and hockey, upgraded conferences in all sports, came within one win of a hockey national championship and enticed the women's Frozen Four to come to Hamden.

Quinnipiac elevated to Division I in 1998, a move that triggered several landmark milestones. The university designed its campus addition atop York Hill around the $52 million TD Bank Sports Center, opened in January 2007. The hockey team, based in part on construction of the new facility, was admitted to the ECAC in 2006, allowing it to compete against top academic and hockey schools. In December 2012, it accepted an invitation to join the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference in all other sports.

McDonald also brokered television, radio and Internet packages for the Bobcats, including competitions seen on NESN, ESPN3 and ESPNU. The Bobcats won 33 conference championships and made 21 NCAA Championship appearances during McDonald's tenure as AD.

A former NACDA Executive Committee member, McDonald was honored as an Under Armour Athletics Director of the Year in 2013-14. He served as DI-AAA ADA President in 2008-09 and received the Association's Gary Cunningham Lifetime Achievement Award in 2015.

After his retirement from Quinnipiac, McDonald became associate vice president and director of athletics at the University of New England (UNE), where he eventually became vice president of student engagement and director of athletics before he retired from UNE in 2017.

McDonald's first stint in the AD chair came at the University of Denver in 1990. He led the Pioneers' program until 1995. Prior to Denver, he was an assistant athletics director at Boston College (BC). McDonald's administrative career at BC began after a nine-year stint as the school's head men's and women's track & field coach.

McDonald served on several committees during his tenure at the national and conference level, as well as within the campus and the community. He is a member of the Boston College and Archbishop Williams High School Halls of Fame.

Bruce Parker, Rocky Mountain College
An award-winning athletics director, Bruce Parker served as athletics director at Rocky Mountain College from July 2014 to February 2018. Parker's career spans more than 40 years in Montana collegiate athletics. He currently works as a consultant with Rocky Mountain College.

Parker took over the reins as the director of athletics at Rocky Mountain College in July 2014, after spending 11 years as the AD at Carroll College. At Rocky Mountain, he was the driving force behind the renovation of the historic Herb Klindt Field in 2016. He helped organize and establish the NAIA Division I Women's Basketball Tournament in Billings, Mont. from 2017 to 2019. He also notably worked on the corporate sponsorship program and developed the athletics staff.

During Parker's tenure at Carroll, the program won six NAIA National Football Championships and the Fighting Saints captured the Frontier Conference George Bandy Memorial All-Sports Trophy four separate times.

Parker spearheaded efforts to add eight sports to Carroll's athletics program, including men's and women's cross country and track and field (indoor and outdoor), as well as men's soccer and women's softball.

Other accomplishments include record attendance at home athletics events, hosting numerous NAIA National Football playoff games, record-setting years with corporate fundraising, and funds generated by the Saints' Athletic Association.

Judy Rose, UNC Charlotte
During her tenure with the Charlotte 49ers, Judy Rose was one of the most successful and well-respected athletics directors in the nation. She served as 49ers director of athletics for 28 years and was a member of the athletics department for 43 years.

At the time of her appointment in 1990, she was just the third female to be put in charge of a Division I program. In 1999-2000, she became the first female to serve on the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Committee. She served a five-year term (2000-04) on that committee. She also served as NACDA President for the 2003-04 academic year.

Chief among her accomplishments is the systematic growth of the 49ers program. That growth culminated with the unveiling of the Charlotte 49ers football program in 2013 -- a start-up program that played two years as an FCS Independent member before moving to the FBS, and Conference USA (C-USA) in 2015. In 2012, the football fieldhouse was named by donor Dale Halton in her honor: Judy W. Rose Football Center.

Rose oversaw the 49ers' moves from the Sun Belt Conference to the Metro Conference to Conference USA to the Atlantic 10 and back to C-USA in 2013-14. She oversaw the 49ers growth into a program that is fully-funded at the NCAA level for athletics scholarships. She helped develop over $100 million worth of athletics facilities, which have enhanced playing venues, academic services, strength and conditioning programs, training and medical support to improve the experience of each and every student-athlete.

Rose was also instrumental in attracting national sporting events to Charlotte such as the 1994 NCAA Men's Basketball Final Four, the 1996 NCAA Women's Basketball Final Four, the 1999 and 2000 NCAA Men's Soccer College Cups as well as a variety of NCAA Men's Basketball tournament rounds.

In 2001, Rose was honored by NACDA as an Athletics Director of the Year. After she stepped down from the AD chair at UNC Charlotte, she was named AD Emerita at the university in May 2018. In November 2018, Rose began work as a consultant for the NJCAA.

Rose received a bachelor's degree from Winthrop University and a master's degree from the University of Tennessee, where she served as an assistant women's basketball coach under the legendary Pat Summitt.
