Bio

Mike Brunetti joined Mitchell College as Sports Information Director in 2022.

In his role he oversees the day-to-day publicity of the Mariners 12 intercollegiate sports and serves as the primary media contact for the Mitchell Athletic Department, writing and disseminating all athletic publications for the College. Brunetti also manages all aspects of the Mitchell Athletic Department's website and social media accounts (not sport-specific) and maintains the department's historical archives. In addition, he serves as the primary statistician for all home athletic events, manages gameday operations for all home events, is in charge of a team of student workers, and coordinates all the audio and video broadcasting of Mitchell athletic events.

Prior to coming to Mitchell, Brunetti spent just over four years as the Sports Director for WINY Radio, covering local sports in Northeastern Connecticut. In that role he managed the Sports Department of the radio station, serving as a reporter, broadcaster, and public relations liaison within an area encompassing 10 towns and beyond. While in this position, he managed media relations, produced live broadcasts, served as play-by-play host, and collaborated and coordinated with athletic directors, coaches, student-athletes, and community leaders to obtain and share results, all while telling the stories of athletes and teams. 

Brunetti earned a bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies from Keene State College and holds a certificate from the Connecticut School of Broadcasting in radio and television production.

He currently resides in East Lyme, Connecticut, with his wife Nicole.
