John Stark begins his first year at the University of Delaware in the role of sports information intern for the 2010-11 academic year. His duties will include serving as the main contact for men’s and women’s soccer, men’s and women’s tennis, women’s basketball and women’s lacrosse.
Stark graduated from Lycoming College in Williamsport, Pa. in May, 2008 with a degree in German and a minor in history.
He comes to Delaware after serving as the Sports Information Director at his alma mater for 16 months. While in that capacity, he was the main contact for the College’s 17 varsity sports, including a nationally ranked wrestling program, as well as a perennial NCAA Division III football program. He also served as the contact for men’s and women’s lacrosse, softball, swimming and men’s and women’s tennis and cross country.
Following his graduation, he served as an intern in the Sports Information department at King’s College in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., working closely with the College’s 19 varsity sports, specifically as the main contact for the men’s and women’s soccer teams.
He broke into the business during his freshman year at Lycoming, keeping defensive hand stats during home football games and picking up hours in the office. In his junior year, the College was without a sports information director for a month. Stark, along with two other students, stepped in during the transition. In his senior year, he served as the top student assistant, serving as the contact for men’s and women’s soccer.
During his time as a student at Lycoming, he was a four-year member of the men’s lacrosse team, playing for now Virginia Military Institute head coach Brian Anken.
A native of Ithaca, N.Y., Stark currently resides in Newark, Del.
