Andrew Goodwin enters his fourth year as the Oregon State women's basketball SID and second as the Director of Digital Communications in 2025-26.

In his first year overseeing the @BeaverAthletics social media accounts, Goodwin implemented strategies that increased Instagram reach by more than 3 million impressions (460%) while adding nearly 7,000 followers to the account. The number of new followers on Facebook more than doubled and reach increased by 43 percent.

Working with the Beaver Creative team, he also aided in the growth of Beaver Creative internships for Oregon State students. The photography team grew from a team of three to eight in Goodwin's first year, providing significantly more content for the communications team and student-athletes to utilize on social media.

In his SID role with women's basketball, Goodwin promoted the team during their first of two seasons in the WCC, culminating with a conference tournament title and second straight trip to the NCAA Tournament. He worked with local and national media to generate coverage for the team and prepared student-athletes from five countries for interviews and press conferences.

In his first two years overseeing women's basketball social media, Goodwin dramatically grew overall engagement (151% increase over the previous two seasons), impressions (149%), followers (15%) and engagements per post (49%) among other measurable improvements in his first two seasons. He also engaged with local and national media to increase coverage of the Beavers ahead of and during their 2024 Elite 8 run.

Goodwin joined the Beavers from Oregon, where he spent a year as the women's lacrosse and acrobatics and tumbling contact. He helped the lacrosse team start Oregon's first team TikTok account and accumulated more than 16,500 followers in under a year. Goodwin also assisted with media relations and record-keeping for the 2022 NCATA National Championships.

Prior to returning to the Pacific Northwest, Goodwin covered volleyball, baseball and bowling at Louisiana Tech during the Bulldogs historic season without a home stadium. He also spent two years as a graduate assistant at his alma mater, Whitworth University, covering or assisting with every sport the Pirates offer. The native Washingtonian is a two-time Whitworth graduate with a B.A. in communications and a M.Ed. in Social Emotional Learning. In addition to time working in sports, Goodwin spent three years fundraising and managing communications for non-profits World Relief Spokane, a refugee resettlement agency, and YWCA Spokane, a social services agency that primarily serves women in domestic abuse situations.
