Riggs previously ran the Athens business and has since acquired a Lincoln Mercury dealer in Vienna West Virginia. Federici owns multiple Ohio and West Virginia auto businesses and formerly played at Duquesne and for the Steelers. General manager H Vaughn Raybuck plans to move to Athens with his family. Federici says no staffing changes at the Athens location.
