Wittenberg University Teams Up With Under Armour
Wittenberg Athletics Signs Multi-Year Partnership with Global Performance Brand
SPRINGFIELD, Ohio--Wittenberg University is excited to announce a new, multi-year partnership with Under Armour, naming the global performance brand as the official outfitter of Tiger Athletics. Kollege Town Sports, UA campus provider, will be servicing the agreement over the next 5 years.
As part of the partnership, Under Armour will exclusively design and supply the footwear, apparel and accessories for training and game day uniforms for all 22 of the University's Men's and Women's varsity athletic teams. KTS's Campus AKTivation program will also allow all ancillary programs the opportunity to participate in the partnership as well.
"We are very excited to be partnering with Wittenberg University. This is a Campus Agreement. All Varsity athletic teams, as well as other groups on campus like intramurals, club/rec and administrative offices will all be given the opportunity to participate in this lucrative agreement," said Kollege Town Sports Vice President, Jeff Handlen.
"Two years ago, after arriving here, we had numerous issues with apparel vendors. From service, to quality, to pricing, the issues were impacting our student-athlete experience and our brand. After having a previous relationship with the Handlen Family, I quickly reached out to KollegeTown and Under Armour and although cliché, the rest is history," said director of athletics Gary Williams.
"When you call, you get an answer. When you buy something, it comes when you expect it, how you expect it, and the way you expect it. Our brand is stronger, our athletes and coaches have pride when we wear our uniforms, and we could not be happier with our decision to partner with Kollegetown and Under Armour. We consider KollegeTown and Under Armour as much a part of our athletic department and University family as any other staff or student that is proud to be a Tiger!"
