TWIN FALLS, Idaho - The College of Southern Idaho Athletic Department welcomes Tessa Molyneux into the role as the Assistant Athletic Director, starting immediately.
Molyneux replaces Daequon Montreal who moved up into the position of Athletic Director with the retirement of former AD Joel Bate.
Molyneux brings with her a wealth of fund-raising experience as well as a knowledge of the Golden Eagle Athletic Department.
"We couldn't be more excited to have Tessa join our team," said CSI Athletic Director Daequon Montreal. "She is a great addition to CSI Athletics and the College of Southern Idaho."
She moved to Twin Falls in 2009 to serve as the CSI Women's Basketball Assistant coach and worked in that position until 2012.
Most recently, Molyneux has worked for the Jae Foundation in a variety of areas. She worked in the sports outreach, establishing partnerships with local schools and community organizations to expand program reach and impact. She also was a facilities director, overseeing the maintenance and operation of the Jae Foundation to ensure a safe and functional environment.
During her time with the Jae Foundation she helped with the annual Jae Foundation Auction fund-raiser and has also helped with the CSI Athletics Fall Fest fund-raiser the past two years.
Molyneux has also been a teacher for the Idaho Digital Learning Academy since August of 2011.
She graduated from Colorado State University with a bachelor's of science in consumer and family studies and from Emporia State University with a master's of science in health and physical education.
"CSI brought me here years ago and I am excited to be a Golden Eagle again," Molyneux said. "I am excited to work with Daequon and everyone at CSI, including the best staff and student athletes."
Molyneux is mom to two boys, Rett and Kai.
