As far as I know the Arutz Sheva article linked above is the only media article I am aware of that specifically mention the participation of PCG members in the excavation. Most other media articles never even mention PCG or the unaccredited Herbert W. Armstrong College even when they happen to link to one of PCG's websites. But even then this Arutz Sheva article only mentions the unaccredited Herbert W. Armstrong College.

The seal impression was found during the wet-sifting of earth layers from the excavation in the Emek-Zurim wet-sifting facility, directed by Dr. Gabriel Barkai and Zachi Dvira, under the auspices of the Nature and Parks Authority and the Ir David Foundation. The bulla was discovered by Efrat Greenwald, a member of the Ophel expedition, who supervised the wet-sifting of the excavation material. Reut Ben-Aryeh, who prepared the Hebrew bullae from the Ophel excavations for publication, was the first to identify it as a seal impression of King Hezekiah. Students and alumni of Herbert W. Armstrong College from Edmond, Oklahoma participated in the excavation.
