DETROIT -- Wayne State University Director of Athletics Erika Wallace has announced the hiring of Eno Umoh as the Warriors' Assistant Athletic Director for Compliance.  Umoh comes to Detroit after two years in the same role at fellow GLIAC school Davenport and two years at her alma mater Grand Valley State prior to that.

"We're excited to welcome Eno to Wayne State Athletics," said Director of Athletics Erika Wallace.  "Her depth of experience in compliance will continue to strengthen our department, and I look forward to the impact she'll make as part of our team."

The Grand Rapids native graduated from GVSU with a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology before attaining her Master's degreee in Business Administration from Maryville University.

Prior to working in athletics, she worked in various positions in healthcare at a neuro rehabilitation hospital.

"I am truly excited to join Wayne State University as the Assistant Athletic Director for Compliance.  I look forward to supporting our student-athletes, coaches, and staff as we continue to strengthen a culture built on excellence, integrity and success," said Umoh.

After redshirting as a freshman in 2008, Umoh enjoyed a successful four-year playing career on the volleyball team at GVSU (2009-12).  Those four seasons saw her appear in 118 of a possible 122 matches, 73 of which were as a starter, and 415 of 447 total sets.  A Daktronics Honorable Mention All-American as a redshirt senior in 2012, the Lakers went 81-41 overall (.664 winning percentage) in Umoh's four seasons.

Umoh finished her career with 425 block assists, second most in Grand Valley State history.  Her 509 total blocks are the third-highest total of any Laker player.  Umoh led GVSU in block assists during all four of her seasons, the only non-setter or non-libero to lead the Lakers in a statistical category four times.  In 2012, she led the Lakers with 145 total blocks, 115 block assists, 30 solo rejections, and 1.28 blocks per set.  All of those numbers were second-best in the GLIAC.  A First Team All-GLIAC selection (Second Team in 2011) and a First Team Daktronics All-Midwest Region selection in 2012, Umoh totaled 10 block assists in her first collegiate match.
