Associate Athletics Director for Compliance Kim Keenan-Kirkpatrick is entering her sixth year with the Seton Hall athletics department.

Keenan-Kirkpatrick currently oversees the education and monitoring of compliance issues for all 14 of Seton Hall's intercollegiate athletics programs.  A former attorney, she is well versed of the NCAA's rules and regulations and ensures that all coaches remain conscious of the ever-changing guidelines in college athletics.

Prior to joining Seton Hall in 2006, Keenan-Kirkpatrick was the associate athletics director and senior women's administrator at Lafayette College for four years.  She served in the same capacities at Kutztown University from 1996-2002.  Before joining the Golden Bears, Keenan-Kirkpatrick spent a few years as an attorney, and also served as Drew University's business manager and cross country head coach.

A track and field standout prior to her graduation from Kent State in 1989, she earned the Mid-America Conference's Bob James Memorial Post-Graduate Scholarship and placed second in the 5,000-meter run at the MAC Indoor Championships her senior year.

Keenan-Kirkpatrick's reputation as an elite track and field representative was proven later in her career as she served as an assistant coach on the U.S. Track & Field team for the 2005 World Championships, and most recently, the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China.  In both instances, and in many others, she worked specifically with America's distance runners.

Currently, Keenan-Kirkpatrick serves as the program administrator for Seton Hall's women's soccer and cross country programs.

She received her law degree from Seton Hall in 1993.

Keenan-Kirkpatrick and her husband Brian have two daughters, Libbie and Madison, and currently reside in Pittstown, N.J.
