North Carolina State athletic director Boo Corrigan received a contract extension through June 2029, the university announced Friday.

Terms of the contract, which was approved by the NC State Board of Trustees, were not disclosed.

Corrigan has held the job since April 2019. In that span, NC State has won 16 Atlantic Coast Conference team championships, the most of any school. The women’s cross country team has won the past three NCAA titles.

“Under Boo’s outstanding leadership, NC State Athletics is experiencing new levels of competitive, academic and financial success,” chancellor Randy Woodson said. “We are fortunate to have such an experienced and well-respected leader to help us navigate through the ever-changing landscape of college athletics.”

In the 2022-23 academic year, NC State was one of just eight Division I schools to reach the postseason in these four sports: football, men’s basketball, women’s basketball and baseball.

The North Carolina State women were ranked No. 6 in the most recent Associated Press Top 25 poll, and the football team finished No. 18 in the College Football Playoff rankings.

Corrigan was named Athletics Director of the Year in 2022.

He previously served as an associate athletic director at Navy, Notre Dame and Duke, and as the athletic director at Army (2011-19).
