After an extensive national search, Matt Shelton has been named athletic director at Southwestern College. Currently associate athletic director at Graceland (Iowa) University, Shelton will take over SC’s top athletic administration job April 1.  “Those who have worked closely with Matt over the past many years describe numerous strengths, but invariably laud his strength of character and his focus on others, colleagues as well as students,” says SC President Brad Andrews. “I am excited about the experience, professionalism, enthusiasm, and dedication Matt brings to our athletic department, and our campus.” An NAIA school of about 1,100 students, Graceland hosts 21 varsity sports and recently added wrestling and bowling to its offerings.
