WEST POINT, N.Y. - Matt Faulkner has joined the Army Office of Athletic Communications in the role of Assistant Director, where he will serve as the primary sport contact for hockey and men's lacrosse and the secondary contact for football.
Faulkner joins the Army staff after spending the last four years at Colgate University as an assistant director and associate director in 2013-14. He oversaw media relations and communications for men's ice hockey, field hockey, women's volleyball and women's lacrosse, as well as men's and women's tennis and swimming and diving.
In his final year with the Raiders, Faulkner took over the reins of the department's website and design responsibilities. He helped with the transition of the office as the department's only salaried employee during the summer of 2012.

While with the Big Green, he worked with field hockey, women's ice hockey and men's lacrosse, as well as tennis, track and field, cross country and sailing. During his time in Hanover, he also assisted with most of the program's 34 sports.
Prior to Dartmouth, Faulkner spent a year as the sports information intern at Division II Saint Michael's in Vermont, and also at the University of Maine. The Sanford, Maine, native graduated with a degree in sports management from the University of Massachusetts in 2006.
