Following more than a decade at the Horizon League, including nearly five years in the commissioner’s chair, Julie Roe Lach has been named Executive Vice President with Pacers Sports & Entertainment, which is the corporate identity exemplified by the Indiana Pacers, Indiana Fever, Noblesville Boom, Pacers Foundation and Gainbridge Fieldhouse. “Today is bittersweet,” said Lach. “Being a part of the Horizon League has been so meaningful. Our staff, presidents, chancellors, athletics directors, sports administrators, coaches, faculty athletics representatives and student-athletes are remarkable. Traveling to our campuses and seeing the transformational opportunities in action has been such a privilege. Our league is filled with committed, talented and impactful leaders. I’m grateful to have been a part of the HL.” Mel Raines, CEO of PS&E, told the media: “Julie brings an incredible track record of leadership, deep ties to Indianapolis and a passionate commitment to our community.”
