BATON ROUGE — Ronnie Haliburton, who has served as director of facility services in the LSU Athletic Department for the last three years, has been promoted to Assistant Athletic Director for Facility Services, athletic director Skip Bertman has announced.
“Ronnie does a tremendous job of coordinating the facility upkeep and maintenance of our athletic physical plant,” Bertman said. “As we move forward with improvements to our athletic facilities, Ronnie’s responsibilities will become even more critical to helping LSU maintain these essential facilities.”
Haliburton came to the athletic department in December of 2003 from LSU’s facility maintenance department where he served as manager since 1998. He was responsible for the overall management for custodial, special events crews, stock room and equipment repair.
Haliburton played for the LSU football team from 1986-89, and was a member of two Southeastern Conference championship teams. He later played for the Denver Broncos of the NFL for three years.
He first joined LSU in an administrative capacity in 1994 as resident assistant of Broussard Hall, then the school’s athletic dormitory, before moving to the weight room as a student assistant strength coach for LSU’s student-athletes.
He became a resident manager in 1996 before being named coordinator of residence life later that year. In 1998 he became Manager of Facility Maintenance at LSU.
