G. Stan Bradley came on board as Sports Information Director (SID) for the Hawks' athletic staff in July of 2001. Since then he has been working to build a relationship with local and extended media across the Eastern Shore and surrounding areas. Bradley has brought many new and creative ideas to UMES to further enhance its marketing and visibility throughout the community.

In 2003, Bradley was promoted to Assistant Director of Athletics for External Affairs. In that capacity, he maintained his duties as the SID but took on many other tasks including: development, advertising, fundraising, facility operations and game day operations.

However, he states that his greatest accomplishments are the staff he has hired and trained who have gone on to hold a variety of positions in various athletic organizations. These include the University of Massachusetts, University of Akron, University of Louisville, Howard University and the Buffalo Bisons Triple-A Baseball Club.

Prior to his current position at UMES, Bradley worked at the University of Maryland College Park with Campus Recreation Services as the Coordinator of Student Personnel/Training. He has also served at Salisbury University as the Public Relations Associate from 1997-98.
