MIT's Miles Roberts Named Finalist for FloSports Inaugural FloCollege CSC Spotlight Award

FloSports named the finalists of its inaugural FloCollege CSC Spotlight Award, a new program designed to honor outstanding College Sports Communicators (CSCs) across FloCollege partner conferences, with MIT's Miles Roberts being named a finalist. 

Miles Roberts is in his second year as Director of Athletics Communications at MIT in 2025-26 after joining MIT in July 2024, after nine-plus years at Wellesley College. 

The FloCollege CSC Spotlight Award celebrates communicators and CSC staff who go above and beyond to elevate their student-athletes, athletic programs, and institutions through strategic storytelling, advocacy, and a commitment to excellence. The award highlights individuals who set the standard in the profession by building meaningful relationships, producing impactful content, enhancing broadcast quality, navigating crises with professionalism, and championing the achievements of those they serve.

This year’s finalists represent the 18 FloCollege partner conferences from 2025-26 across the country. 

Each finalist will receive a $500 award, with one grand prize winner receiving $5,000. The grand prize winner will be announced at NACDA and celebrated at a FloCollege reception on June 9 at the Mandalay Bay Hotel. 

“We wouldn’t be able to operate without the contributions of these finalists and the many deserving nominees who were considered for this recognition,” said John Turner, VP & GM of FloCollege. “It’s impossible to read through more than 100 nominations and not feel inspired by the passion, creativity, and dedication these communicators bring to their work every day. While only a handful could be named finalists, the submissions made one thing clear: college athletics is stronger because of the professionals who work behind the scenes to tell stories, promote student-athletes, and elevate their institutions.”

The award underscores FloSports’ ongoing commitment to growing its partners and investing in college athletics with a focus on Division II and Division III programs. The company has so far committed more than $75 million to FloCollege partners, covering rights fees, broadcast infrastructure, original content, product development, and marketing to a premium experience across all devices for partners and fans. FloCollege currently represents 20 NCAA conferences along with a handful of high-profile Division I MTE events. 

FloCollege is a leading destination for college sports, hosting more than 25,000 live and on-demand events annually across NCAA Division I, II, and III competition with round-the-clock original programming on the FloCollege website, apps, and social media platforms. Last year, the platform streamed more than 200 million live minutes of college sports action with millions of social video views, demonstrating significant audience engagement and accelerating interest in Division II and III athletics.
