In August 2023, Speraw was appointed to the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Oversight Committee, which is responsible for ensuring appropriate national oversight of the sport and supervising the qualification and selection procedures for the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Championship.
Prior to joining the WAC, Speraw spent nearly 10 seasons as Director of Men’s Basketball Operations at Kansas State University under head coach Bruce Weber. During his tenure, the Wildcats captured Big 12 regular-season championships in 2013 and 2019 and made five NCAA Tournament appearances, including an Elite Eight run in 2017–18.
A former Division I student-athlete, Speraw played basketball at the University of Central Florida from 2005 to 2010. He later served as a graduate student manager and administrative assistant at the University of Iowa from 2010 to 2012.
Speraw earned a bachelor’s degree in finance and a master’s degree in sport and fitness administration from UCF, as well as a Master of Business Administration from Iowa.
