Atlantic 10 names new commissioner

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Bernadette McGlade was selected Monday as the new commissioner of the Atlantic 10 Conference, replacing Linda Bruno.

McGlade had served as the associate commissioner of the Atlantic Coast Conference since 1999. Bruno resigned in December.

McGlade has spent nearly 30 years in college athletics as a competitor, coach and administrator. A former basketball player at North Carolina before going on to coach at Georgia Tech, she was the tournament director for the 1993 women's Final Four. She was a member of the women's tournament selection committee from 1995-2000 and joined the ACC in 1997.
