XENIA – The Metro Buckeye Conference has named outgoing Miami Valley School Athletic Director Reginald James as its new commissioner.

James, who spent the last three years at MVS, takes over for Brian Blevins, who previously announced that he is stepping down after three years as the MBC commissioner. James was one of several interviewed and was approved as the commissioner following a regular meeting and executive session at Legacy Christian Academy on May 7.

"First, I would like to thank all of the conference ADs and current commissioner for this wonderful opportunity to move into the role of conference commissioner,” James said. “With year three of being the athletic director for Miami Valley School wrapping up, I have had the pleasure of being a crucial member in the conference's progression as a school athletic director and I am looking forward as commissioner to help lead the vision of the conference AD's as we grow and build in the best interest of the student athletes we serve."

James' familiarity with the MBC was key in his hiring as the commissioner.

"Reggie brings knowledge of our conference from his time as the AD at Miami Valley for the last three years. I believe this will be very helpful moving forward,” said Zach Armstrong, Emmanuel Christian Academy athletic director. “We are excited to have Reggie as the next commissioner of the Metro Buckeye Conference. He will be able to continue the great traditions while also adding some new ideas and perspectives in his new role."

Member schools for the 2025-26 school year will be Calvary Christian, Emmanuel Christian Academy, Legacy Christian Academy, Miami Valley School, Middletown Christian School, and Yellow Springs.
