EASTON, Mass. (June 4, 2025) – Stonehill College Director of Athletics Dean O’Keefe announced the hiring of Tim Williamson as the Skyhawks’ Associate Director of Athletics for Strategic Communications.
 
In his new role, Williamson will be responsible for developing and implementing a comprehensive communications strategy that advances the College’s athletic brand, engages stakeholders, and supports the success of Stonehill’s 23 NCAA Division I athletic programs and over 500 student-athletes.
 
The Associate AD for Strategic Communications will oversee the Athletic Communications team and collaborate with internal and external partners to promote the achievements of student-athletes, coaches, and the College.
 
Before Williamson’s most recent stint as a faculty member at St. Catherine of Siena School in Norwood, Massachusetts, he held the role of Associate Director of Athletics for Athletic Communications at Harvard University from 2013 to 2022. In total, Williamson spent 14 years with the Crimson, promoting the largest Division I intercollegiate athletic department in the country.
 
At Harvard, he handled the direct publicity for several of Harvard’s teams and was responsible for updating GoCrimson.com, writing, designing, and editing publications such as media guides and game programs, creating video highlights for assigned Harvard teams, and working to keep Harvard athletics prominent in the local, regional, and national media. Williamson also oversaw Harvard’s social media efforts, using X, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube to promote Harvard athletics.
 
Williamson also served as the program manager for the men’s and women’s fencing programs and was the assistant program manager for baseball. He was also the assistant program manager for men’s and women’s basketball for two years.
 
In the fall of 2014, Williamson, who worked directly with the Crimson football program from 2013-2022, and the Athletic Communications staff at Harvard hosted ESPN’s College GameDay. The national show was televised live before Harvard’s home game against Yale in the 131st playing of The Game on Nov. 22, 2014. This marked only the second time an Ivy League school has hosted the premier weekly college football show.
 
From 2010-13, Williamson was the primary contact for the men’s basketball team. During the 2011-12 season, Williamson led the public relations effort for the men’s basketball team, as the Crimson advanced to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1946 and earned the program’s first national ranking. In 2012-13, Harvard won the first NCAA tournament game in team history and advanced to the Round of 32.
 
In May 2008, Williamson served as the press box coordinator, helping oversee 300 media members for the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championships held at Gillette Stadium.  He worked in a similar capacity at the 2009 NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championships and was the media coordinator at the 2010 NCAA Fencing Championships and the 2011 NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Quarterfinals at Gillette Stadium. In May 2012, Williamson also served as the media coordinator for the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championships at Gillette Stadium.
 

Before arriving at Harvard, he spent one year as the Assistant Director of Media Relations at Columbia University, where he was the sports information contact for baseball, wrestling, field hockey, cross country, and track & field.
 

A 2004 graduate of Boston College with a B.A. in United States history, Williamson later earned his M.A. in United States history from B.C. in 2005.  Williamson entered the sports information field as an intern at B.C., working as the secondary contact for football and served as the primary contact for softball, cross country, track & field, and golf. 
 
Williamson is on the executive committee of the New England Football Writers’ Association and is the current vice president of Stoughton Youth Baseball.
