GREENSBORO, N.C. – The Guilford College Athletic Communications Department is pleased to announce the addition of Aubrey Bower and Tyler Tingen in the roles of Athletic Communications Graduate Assistant for the 2025-26 academic year, as announced by the department on Monday afternoon. 

"I am extremely excited to bring in these two outstanding young professionals who I firmly believe will be brilliant additions to our team both within Athletic Communications, and the department as a whole," Director of Athletic Communications, Bryce Johnson, said. "During the previous academic year, massive strides were made structurally and in the elevation of our standard that enhanced our Athletic Communications coverage, and that is thanks in large part to the work done by the great pair of individuals in this role prior. Aubrey and Tyler, I believe, will come in and will build on that, raising the standard of Quakers Athletic Communications with both their experience and skills, but more importantly, their energy and passion for collegiate athletics and the student-athlete experience. I am really excited to see what we can accomplish together through the upcoming year."

Aubrey Bower is a summa cum laude graduate of DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana, where she earned degrees in Communication and English Writing. A member of the prestigious Media Fellows Honors Program, she also served as an on-air broadcaster for WGRE 91.5, DePauw's campus radio station. As a student-athlete on the track & field team, Bower brought her leadership off the field as well, serving on the executive board of the Diverse Athletes Association (DAA).

Bower's passion for athletic communications was sparked through her work as a student assistant with DePauw Athletics, where she covered all 23 varsity sports. In her senior year, she was promoted to a manager role of the student assistant team and selected to participate in the College Sports Communicators' national convention as part of its student program.

Bower thrives behind the camera, approaching sports information as both a technical and artistic craft. She is deeply committed to inclusive representation and authentic storytelling, utilizing visual media to showcase the individual humanity of each athlete while strengthening a collective sense of team pride.

Tyler also worked in the 2024 NCAA DIII Women's Lacrosse and Women's Volleyball Championships as well as the 2025 NCAA Division-III Women's Basketball and Men's Volleyball National Championships hosted in Salem.
