In Honor Of Ethan Hamilton
11/06/75-7/4/2024

Together with his wife, Andrea, and children, Lily and Eli, Ethan resided in 4S Ranch where he could often be found on the courts and fields loudly cheering on neighborhood kids and pouring into the community.

Ethan Hamilton, the beloved Athletic Director at Point Loma Nazarene University, passed away on July 4th, 2024 after a brief battle with leukemia. Hamilton led the PLNU athletic department through its transition from the NAIA to NCAA Division II and the Sea Lions quickly became a DII powerhouse. Under Hamilton’s leadership, PLNU teams made 45 NCAA postseason appearances, earned 21 PacWest Championships, secured 2 National Championship runner up titles (Baseball, Men’s Basketball) and came home with the Women’s Soccer National Championship title in 2023. Hamilton was widely respected across the greater San Diego community.
