Les LandLes Land, Executive Director
1978

Land was a key figure in the early planning stages of the game, long before it was certified by the NCAA early in 1978. His organizational skills were instrumental in laying the game’s foundation in a very short period of time. When the game became official, Land agreed to serve as the first executive director, taking a leave of absence from his business and serving without pay.
