Katie Boldvich serves as Commissioner of the Landmark Conference and is a longtime advocate for NCAA Division III athletics. A former two-sport Division III student-athlete, coach, and administrator, she brings a student-centered, experience-driven approach to conference leadership.
Since assuming the role, Boldvich has focused on strengthening the Landmark through intentional growth, strategic partnerships, and long-term planning. The conference expanded to 10 member institutions in the summer of 2023 with the additions of Lycoming College and Wilkes University, marking only the second expansion in league history.
Following the strategic expansion to 10 members, the Landmark introduced football as a conference-sponsored sport to provide stability, long-term scheduling solutions and additional postseason access for its member institutions. Growth continues for the league, with men’s volleyball announced as the Landmark’s 24th sport, beginning in the spring of 2027.
A central focus of Boldvich’s leadership has been elevating the student-athlete championship experience through intentional, long-term partnerships at neutral sites. The Landmark has aligned with iconic and historic venues—including the Palestra, the Shawnee Inn and Golf Club, and Loyola University Maryland’s Mangione Aquatic Center—to create distinctive and meaningful game day environments. Complementing those efforts, the conference has secured additional partnerships with the Lancaster Stormers (baseball), Central PA Tennis Center, and the PG Learning Complex (track & field), providing consistency and heightened visibility across championship operations.
Boldvich has helped position the Landmark as a national leader in multimedia and storytelling within Division III. The conference established the first conference-wide multimedia partnership in the division and has since expanded and extended its agreement with FloSports. The partnership reflects a deliberate commitment to enhanced production, expanded coverage, and original feature content, representing a multi-million-dollar investment directed back to member institutions and reinvested into championships and special events.
Beyond the Landmark, Boldvich remains actively engaged in national Division III leadership and governance. She serves on the Executive Committee of the Division III Commissioners Association (DIIICA) and the NCAA Division III Interpretations and Legislative Committee, contributing to policy development and long-term planning at the national level.
Boldvich has also had a longstanding impact on the collegiate ice hockey community, having served on both the NCAA Division III Women’s and Men’s Ice Hockey National Committees and chairing the women’s committee in 2017–18 and the men’s committee in 2023–24. She also serves as Executive Director of the Intercollegiate Rowing Association, overseeing the planning and execution of the IRA National Championship, one of the oldest collegiate championships in the country.
Prior to her work in collegiate athletics administration, Boldvich built a background in sports television and media, working with organizations including the Boston Celtics, Boston Bruins, UEFA Champions League, U.S. Ski & Snowboard, and the World Surf League. That experience continues to inform her approach to storytelling, production, and fan engagement.
A magna cum laude graduate of Emerson College, Boldvich was a four-year starter and captain in both soccer and softball. She was part of the softball program’s 2007 NCAA postseason run, which marked the college’s first NCAA tournament appearance and postseason wins.
