Steve Peed came to Franklin & Marshall late in the fall of
2006 as the interim Sports Information Director. He was named the
Director of Athletic Communications at the start of the 2007-2008
academic year. Since his arrival, Peed has overseen the
reconstruction of the athletics record books, moving them into a
digital format. He has revamped the department’s
publications, relaunched the athletics web site and formed Franklin
& Marshall’s video streaming partnership with B2
Networks.
Peed spent five years (2001-2006) as the Director of Sports
Information at McDaniel College (formerly Western Maryland). He
assumed the post the August following his graduation from the
school. In his time in Westminster, he established a complete
electronic database of athletic records and shepherded in the era
of Internet broadcasting, taking WTTR AM 1470’s radio feed to
the web.
As a student-athlete at Western Maryland, Peed studied Political
Science and Communications, and was a member of four Centennial
Conference Championship teams (three in football, one in
wrestling). As a junior, he interned for the Maryland General
Assembly and was hired for each of the next two legislative
sessions, working the spring semester while balancing a full course
load.
Peed is the grandson of the late Lawrence H. Roney, '50, and great
nephew of Roger E. Roney '52, a swimmer under George McGinness. He
is currently in his second year of a Master's program in Sport
Management at Drexel University. Peed resides in Lancaster with his
wife, Courtney.
