5 years later, Love still heart of ASU athletics


It’s been five years since Lisa Love was hired to serve as the Vice President of University of Athletics at ASU in a tenure that has already featured a mix of highs and lows.

There have been individual and team national titles under her watch and a slew of new coaching hires, but the athletic department has also been forced to cut sports and has put self-imposed sanctions on its baseball program.

For Love, the journey has already flown by.

“It’s been the fastest five years that I could imagine,” Love said. “It’s been wonderful, it’s been challenging [and] it’s been invigorating. It has also been extraordinarily rewarding, I’m counting my lucky starts that I was afforded the opportunity in 2005 to be the Athletics Director at Arizona State, and every day I’m appreciative of that. Every single day.”
