What They're Saying About

Marlene Navor

“Marlene was a great sports information director throughout my four years at the College of Charleston. She prepared myself and other players really well for the media and always paid a lot of attention to detail. She also was very supportive during my time between school and competing in the Olympics. She is a hard worker and any school would be lucky to have her.” - Former College of Charleston Men's Basketball Player, 2012 Olympian and Great Britain National Team Member Andrew Lawrence

“Marlene Navor was not only one of the hardest working people I remember from my UNLV days, but on top of that, she always was a pleasure to be around. She had a way of making us feel special and fought to make sure that female student-athletes would get the best treatment and media coverage possible. She genuinely cared about and rejoiced in our success and suffered with the losses. Marlene always went the extra mile and wouldn't stop until things got done. I would highly recommend adding Marlene to your staff and I am sure you will be nothing but pleased.” - Former UNLV Women's Basketball All-American, WNBA player, German National Team Member and UNLV all-time leading scorer Linda Frohlich

“Marlene Navor was an outstanding sports information director for us at Texas A&M. She then accepted a role at the College of Charleston, where she was responsible for both the men's and women's programs. She is ready for the next step in her career.

She responds very well to student-athletes and goes out of her way to put student-athletes in the best light with the media, promoting her program in the best light.” - Texas A&M Women's Basketball Head Coach and Women's Basketball Hall of Famer Gary Blair

“Marlene has always been very professional and organized. She was someone I could count on and knew I could trust during my playing career at Texas A&M University.” - Former Texas A&M Men's Tennis All-American and ATP Tour Professional Austin Krajicek

“Marlene is a top-notch sports information director. Not only does she care deeply for her student-athletes, but realizes that both the school and all of its athletes are brands.

Any school would be lucky to have her.” - Former College of Charleston Men's Basketball Player and Three-Time Academic All-American Canyon Barry

“Marlene Navor was instrumental in creating an identity for our program and our student-athletes at Texas A&M University. We took over an extremely challenging situation, maybe the worst program in a Power 5 conference at that time. She was very effective marketing our student-athletes and any success they may have had early in the process of turning around that program. This was important, not only in promoting our program to our fans which bolstered attendance, but also aided in the recruiting process.” - Texas Women's Basketball Head Coach and Former Texas A&M Women's Basketball Associate Head Coach Vic Schaefer

“I have known Marlene Navor since my days as a student-athlete at Washington State, where she was absolutely outstanding in the role of SID and in the promotion of our women’s tennis program. I’ve been fortunate to be able to continue to cross paths with Marlene over the past decade and a half as we both have pursued our careers in college athletics. I have continued to marvel at her 'student-athletes first' approach. Marlene is a true professional: competent, driven, and passionate.” - Former Washington State Women's Tennis All-American, WSU Athletics Hall of Famer and current Chief Operating Officer of the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Erica Perkins Jasper
