President Burns Hargis announced in an email Thursday that Deputy Athletic Director Chad Weiberg will take over the Athletic Director position effective on July 1 at the end of current Athletic Director Mike Holder’s contract.
Holder has overseen Oklahoma State athletics for the last 16 years and will be most remembered for his role in upgrading the athletic facilities. OSU had constructed new facilities for baseball, tennis, and women’s soccer in the past seven years; Holder also oversaw the construction of the Sherman E. Smith Training Center as well as the reconstruction of Boone Pickens Stadium.
