ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – University of New Mexico President Garnett S. Stokes announced Ryan Berryman as Vice President and Director of Athletics, removing his interim title.
Berryman, a New Mexico native and three-time UNM graduate, is one of the youngest athletics directors in Division I. He is also the first Lobo alumnus to lead the department in the modern era.
“This search confirmed what Lobo Athletics has in Ryan Berryman,” said Stokes. “He was evaluated against an outstanding field of candidates, and he stood above them.”
During his two-month interim period, Berryman led efforts for improvements at University Stadium and secured a 10-year naming rights partnership with Nusenda Credit Union.
Berryman began his career as a student manager for the men’s basketball program in 2012, contributing to back-to-back Mountain West Championships.
