NC State Athletics has announced the appointment of Bob Alejo as Assistant Athletics Director for Strength and Conditioning/Head Strength and Conditioning Coach. Alejo, who has approximately 30 years of experience working with a variety of sports on the professional and collegiate levels, will oversee the strength and conditioning unit for all 23 Wolfpack varsity teams, and will manage personally the day-to-day strength program for the men's basketball team.
