Simmelkjaer '93 named ESPN VP for Intl. Development

|

ESPN recently named Rob Simmelkjaer '93 as its new Vice President of International Development, after he served the network for two years as the vice president of corporate projects. In his previous position, Simmelkjaer worked in international affairs, focusing on putting together a bid for ESPN to broadcast the next Olympic Games. "The Olympics now is just a small part of what I'm going to be doing," he said in an interview with The Dartmouth. Although his previous work included some on-air duties for the network, Simmelkjaer said he is primarily interested in the management of ESPN, but plans to continue doing on-air commentary. "Ultimately I want to be involved in running the business here," he said. Simmelkjaer said his role in ESPN International will be expanded because of the scope of his new position.

As the Dartmouth women's volleyball team continues to build on its fantastic 12-3 start, Kendall Houston '12, who leads the team (12-3, 3-1 Ivy) with 376 assists on the year, is doing everything she can to help push the Big Green toward an Ivy League championship. Though Houston has started for the volleyball team since her freshman year, captain Jessie Hartman '11 has seen Houston's development first-hand and believes she continues to improve. "She has always been a very dynamic player," Hartman said.
