The Valparaiso University Department of Athletics has announced that it is extending its partnership with NIKE, the world's leading designer, marketer and distributor within the athletics industry. BSN SPORTS will continue to serve as the exclusive supplier of NIKE uniforms, footwear, apparel, equipment and accessories.
 
This extended partnership ensures that Valpo student-athletes across all sports will continue to be supported with NIKE apparel for seasons to come. Valpo will continue to benefit from access to BSN SPORTS' line of Campus Branding products featuring exclusive NIKE branding designs and customizable online fanwear shops for the Valpo community.  
 
"Our partnership with NIKE and BSN SPORTS plays an important role in our student-athlete experience and our institution's national identity," Valpo Director of Athletics and Campus Recreation Laurel Hosmer said. "The brand power of NIKE is unmatched in the industry, and this extension allows for a continued affiliation with one of the world's most recognizable brands. The agreement to continue to outfit our student-athletes with NIKE products through our incredible partners at BSN SPORTS helps us continue to embrace our role as the front porch for Valparaiso University. I want to thank everyone who supported this process, including LEONA, whose guidance and facilitation were invaluable to a very successful extension of our partnership with NIKE and BSN SPORTS." 
 
As part of the multi-year agreement, NIKE will continue to serve as the official apparel provider for Valpo Athletics, outfitting all 19 varsity programs along with BSN SPORTS.
 
"We look forward to continuing what's been a great relationship with Valpo and all Beacons fans," said Todd Northrop, SVP of BSN SPORTS Collegiate Select Division. "We're looking forward to sharing in many more special moments with their fans, coaches, students and athletes while providing the best in apparel, gear and fanwear."
