Carly Vadinsky was promoted to Director of Athletic Communications at William Peace University in January 2025 after joining the Pacers as Athletic Communications Assistant in January 2024. She will enter her second full year as director and third year overall with the Pacers in 2026-27.
As Director of Athletic Communications, Vadinsky leads the communications strategy and day-to-day coverage for all 18 varsity programs at William Peace. She oversees the department’s digital and creative presence while managing athletic communications operations across live statistics, livestreaming, website content, social media, photography, graphic design, feature writing, media days, game day coverage, record keeping, award nominations, and postseason reporting. She also contributes to major departmental initiatives, including the annual Derby’s awards ceremony and William Peace Athletics’ Day of Giving campaign efforts.
Throughout her time at William Peace, Vadinsky has played a key role in documenting and promoting milestone moments across Pacer athletics. In 2024, while serving as Athletic Communications Assistant, she provided on-site creative coverage throughout the men’s soccer program’s historic postseason run, capturing the photos, video, and digital content surrounding the Pacers’ first USA South Conference Championship at Brevard College and first NCAA Tournament appearance at the University of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
Following her promotion to Director of Athletic Communications in January 2025, Vadinsky assumed leadership of the department and has continued to expand the reach and depth of William Peace Athletics’ communications efforts through comprehensive coverage, creative storytelling, and digital strategy. In the spring of 2025, she launched the William Peace Athletic Communications Internship Program, creating hands-on opportunities for students to gain experience in sports media, broadcasting, photography, statistics, creative content, and game day operations while further strengthening the department’s coverage of Pacer student-athletes, coaches, and programs.
A two-year member of College Sports Communicators (CSC), Vadinsky remains actively involved in professional development and industry networking within collegiate athletics communications.
A native of Hillsborough, New Jersey, Vadinsky earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Marketing from Ramapo College of New Jersey in 2020. At Ramapo, she was a four-year member and two-year captain of the softball team. She was part of the 2017 team that captured both the regular season conference championship and an NCAA Regional Championship, finishing two wins shy of the NCAA Division III Women’s College World Series. The Roadrunners returned to the NCAA Tournament again in 2018. Her experience as a student-athlete on a nationally competitive program continues to shape her approach to leadership, collaboration, creativity, and storytelling within collegiate athletics.
