COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Ohio High School Athletic Association announced Bob Goldring has been appointed as the interim executive director for the organization.
Goldring will begin working in the position effective immediately.
The appointment was made after Jerry Snodgrass stepped down as the organization's executive director, after spending 12 years working for the OHSAA. Snodgrass has served as the OHSAA's executive director since July of 2018.
Goldring also previously served as the OHSAA's acting executive director from mid-March to mid-June back in 2016.
"I am honored by the confidence the Board has placed in me," Goldring said in a released statement. "We have a solid team of knowledgeable and dedicated professionals at the OHSAA who are committed to serving our member schools. My top priorities are to prepare for return to play this fall and successfully lead the team until a permanent executive director is hired.”
As part of his duties, Goldring will work with state officials and district administrators to come up with a plan to get sports play started in the fall.
A nationwide search will take place to find a permanent executive director.
