Despite being one of the smaller schools in Division I sports, the Gaels have competed on some of the largest scales of competition, not being intimidated by larger and more traditional powerhouse schools. This is all led by ath letic director Mark Orr who has turned Saint Mary's into more than a Cinderella program. Within the last five or so years, Saint Mary's has had some of its most athletic successes in school history under Orr's guidance. He's held the position since 2006 and looks over 14 men's and women's intercollegiate teams and the recreational sports pro gram, all while being one of the youngest athletic directors in the NCAA. Orr's love for collegiate ath letics began when he was a col legiate student-athlete himself as a scholarship defensive back on the University of California football team in the late 1990's.
