Eastern Connecticut State AD Lori Runksmeier will retire this spring after leading the Warriors since 2015. LEC Commissioner Al Bean: “Lori is a trusted and respected colleague, well informed, insightful and has been a true leader for the LEC. During her tenure at Eastern, she has served a term as Chair of the Athletic Directors Council and has been instrumental in moving the LEC forward in many ways. Her leadership and voice have been critical to the success of the Little East Conference and she will be missed by all involved.” (link)
