Universitario de Deportes mourns former administrator Rocío Chávez Pimentel

Universitario de Deportes has announced the passing of Rocío Graciela Chávez Pimentel, a prominent businesswoman and former temporary administrator of the club. Her death was confirmed on Friday, October 16, 2026, via a family statement.

Chávez Pimentel assumed management of the club in April 2012 through the company Right Business, during a period of institutional reorganization and economic difficulty. Her administration, appointed by Indecopi, focused on financial stability and implementing a corporate management model.

She is notably remembered for her role in the club's 2013 national championship campaign, which was achieved under the technical direction of Ángel Comizzo. Her tenure concluded in July 2014 when the creditors' meeting appointed a new administrator.
