Ohio Christian University is pleased to announce Natalie England as the new Sports Information Director. England, who previously served as a Sports Information Graduate Assistant, will oversee athletic communications for all 17 of the Trailblazers' athletic programs.

"I am excited to take on this new position as Sports Information Director," England said. "I'm thankful to Ally Coyle for trusting me with this role and for guiding me over the last two years as a Graduate Assistant."

England is a graduate of Ohio Christian University, where she earned a degree in Sport Business Management and a master's degree in Leadership. During her undergraduate career, she played volleyball and worked in the athletic department under the former Sports Information Director before transitioning into a Graduate Assistant role. She also interned at the Everts Center in Circleville, gaining experience in event and website management and operations.

As a Graduate Assistant, England supported sports information and game-day operations across all of OCU's athletic programs, including statistics, event support, publicity, and website upkeep. She also wrote and published more than 190 athletics stories and recaps and maintained the university's athletics website.

"We are excited to welcome Natalie as our next Sports Information Director. Having coached her as a student-athlete and watched her grow during the past two years as our Sports Information Graduate Assistant, I've seen firsthand her dedication, professionalism, and passion for Ohio Christian University. She understands our mission, our culture, and the importance of telling the stories of our student-athletes with excellence," said Director of Athletics Ally Coyle. "Her faith is evident in the way she serves others, and I know she will continue to positively impact our athletic department by highlighting the achievements of our student-athletes while pointing them toward Christ. We are confident she is the right person to continue advancing the mission of OCU Athletics."

"God is working at OCU, and I am excited and humbled to be able to take on this role and improve the student-athlete experience from a media and event-management perspective," said England. "OCU has great athletes, and they deserve to have their stories told. I'm thankful for the opportunity to be a part of their experience as a student-athlete."
