He also serves as the sport administrator for the Army Hockey and Gymnastics teams.
Prior to returning to West Point, Bell served as the Director of Athletics at Mount Saint Mary College from 2023-2025, where he led a comprehensive transformation of the Division III athletic department. Under his leadership, the department achieved success competitively, academically, and financially. Student-athletes posted a 3.25 department GPA, while strategic initiatives – including the Go Blue campaign, expanded facility rentals, and a revitalized summer camp program – increased revenue by more than 90%. On the field of play, the women’s basketball team captured the 2025 Skyline Conference Championship and earned a berth to the NCAA Tournament, while the department improved from sixth to fourth place in the Skyline Conference President’s Cup standings.
Bell previously spent 12 years at Army West Point Athletics (2011-2023), most recently serving as the Associate Athletic Director for Event Operations, Facilities and Capital Projects. In that role, he directed scheduling, game management, facilities, and capital improvement projects. He played a key leadership role in the execution of the annual Army-Navy game and contributed to the planning and design of the Michie Stadium Preservation Project.
A 2006 graduate of Mount Saint Mary College, Bell earned a bachelor’s degree in History with a minor in Political Science. A four-year starter and senior captain of the baseball team, he helped lead the Knights to the 2003 Skyline Conference Championship and a berth in the NCAA Tournament. He later earned a master’s degree in Sports Business Management from Manhattanville University in 2009.
Bell and his wife, Jennifer, reside in Marlboro, NY, with their two sons, Riley and Brady.
