Pat Kraft, senior associate athletics director at Loyola University Chicago, has been named Temple’s deputy athletic director. Kraft came to Loyola after working on the senior athletic staff at Indiana University, where he was responsible for branding and marketing efforts. “I witnessed firsthand his efforts in branding and marketing Indiana athletics as we served together on IU’s athletics senior staff,” said Temple interim athletics director Kevin Clark. “His business acumen and his ability to engage fan bases will be critical as Temple is poised to enter a new era in its athletics program in 2013-14 with the move to the American Athletic Conference.”
