Prairie View A&M will name Ashley Robinson as the new athletic director at a press conference at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday afternoon, an athletic department source said.
Robinson returns to Prairie View after serving as the AD at Mississippi Valley State for the past 10 months. Prior to his stint there, he was the Assistant Vice President of Athletic Compliance at Prairie View A&M.
Robinson replaces Fred Washington, who served as the athletic director since 2009. Washington, who also served as vice president of auxiliary services as well as athletic director, stepped down from the athletic director post to focus solely on auxiliary operations in March. He is still a member of the university’s executive staff.
