Jae Tomanovich ’26Sports/Comm (TBC)
Prior to coming to John Carroll, Jae Tomanovich heard that a career in sports wasn't realistic. At JCU, he found a team of mentors and peers who believed in him and helped turn his dream into reality. With their support, he's gained real-world experience with the Cleveland Guardians and is taking on the role of Ballpark Runners Supervisor.

- When I was a freshman first coming to John Carroll, I just didn’t know what to expect.
- I was always told in high school that, you know, the sports path, it’s not very realistic.
- Not many people are able to go into that path, but being here at John Carroll, that has opened my opportunities to way more than I ever expected when I was 18 years old.
- Just from some of my biggest mentors to name them, Kim Malley, Sean Cronin, Brian Collian, Brian Vigge, they’ve all pretty much guided me to who I’ve become today,
- and I’m very thankful for that.
- As well as the John Carroll Baseball team and my best friend Eric Crowell that decided to come here as well with me.
- They’ve all given me endless opportunities to end up with the Cleveland Guardians, and I’m really hopeful to return with them next year in either fan services role or a stadium operations role.
