Livingstone names Andre Springs new AD

SALISBURY Andre Springs has been named athletics director at Livingstone College.

“We had to find a leader with the right chemistry,” Dr. Jimmy R. Jenkins Sr., Livingstone’s president, said.  “Andre has camaraderie with the coaches and staff that will take Livingstone College Athletics to the next level.” 

Springs has been at Livinstone since January 2010 as the men’s golf coach, and for the past six months additionally as assistant athletics director for fundraising. 

Springs had previously been at Livingstone from 1979-89, as men’s golf coach. He said at a Monday news conference his plans include improving facilities and supporting Livingstone student-athletes in academics and athletics.

“When I left Livingstone the first time, I told myself that when I returned it would be as the athletic director,” Springs said.  “Two years after I was hired as the golf coach, it’s my time to lead this department.”
