Ryan Reggiani has been the Deputy Athletics Director for External Operations for the past six years at Saint Mary’s College, after serving three years as Senior Associate Athletics Director for External Relations for the Gaels.
Reggiani is a member of the Senior Administration Team with Saint Mary’s, and is a sport supervisor for men’s basketball, volleyball and golf. He oversees the day-to-day operations of the External Relations department, which includes marketing, communications, digital media, ticketing, social media, merchandise, licensing and revenue generation.

While overseeing facilities and operations, Reggiani was the lead organizer of an 18-million-dollar remodel and renovation of University Credit Union Pavilion, which includes new locker rooms, coaches’ offices, administrative offices and fan enhancement areas completed in 2024.
