MIDDLETOWN, Conn. – Wesleyan Athletics has agreed to extend its partnerships with NIKE and BSN SPORTS with a new, multi-year agreement that continues to exclusively outfit the Cardinals' 30 varsity athletics programs.
"Wesleyan Athletics is excited to extend our partnership with NIKE and BSN SPORTS," said Wesleyan's Director of Athletics
Mike Whalen '83. "Competing at the highest level of Division III—particularly in the NESCAC—requires a first-class commitment in every area. Providing our student-athletes with the best apparel and equipment in the industry is an important part of delivering a championship-level experience and sustaining excellence across our 30 varsity programs."
The department-wide partnership designated BSN SPORTS, the industry lead for team sports solutions and a division of Varsity Brands, as the official supplier of Wesleyan Athletics uniforms, apparel, footwear, equipment, and accessions. The Cardinals will wear NIKE sideline gear for all games, practices, and official team events.
"We're eager to help Wesleyan continue to grow and develop every aspect of their program," said Bill Stote, Senior Vice President of Collegiate Select at BSN SPORTS. "We've seen the investment and intentionality of this administration firsthand and look forward to helping new generations of athletes, fans and coaches show up and show out with the best apparel, gear and fanwear available today."
