BDN Reports on Roberts’ Resignation

The Bangor Daily News reported Joe Roberts, the University of Maine’s associate athletic director for external operations, has resigned after nearly 25 years at the university. “It has been a great run. It’s time to do something different. It seemed like a good time [to step down]. Twenty-five is a pretty round number,” Roberts said. Karlton Creech, UMaine’s director of athletics, said Roberts will be missed. “Joe’s a great guy. I enjoyed working with him. He did a good job,” Creech said. “It was his decision. Joe is looking at some new challenges, and I wish him all the best of luck.”
