NCAA Makes It Official: Sweet is New President

UC San Diego Athletic Director Judy Sweet was named president of the NCAA for a two-year term, succeeding Al Witte of Arkansas, during the final day of its national convention Thursday in Nashville, Tenn.

Sweet, 43, who had been athletic director at UCSD since 1975, ran unopposed for the president’s position after serving two years as secretary-treasurer, the NCAA’s second-highest post. She is the first woman to hold either position.
