As the athletic department looks to kick off the fall season, some roles are being shifted as newly-hired Athletic Director, Nick Morrow takes over. As one of UNF’s office veterans, Ervin Lewis has been promoted to deputy athletic director.

In his 12th year at UNF, Lewis will now be the right-hand man to the athletic director. Still tasked with all of his previous duties, Lewis is looking to continue the legacy he has been a part of since 2009.
