“This long-term agreement aligns NM State with the most innovative global performance brand in sports today,” said NM State Director of Athletics Mario Moccia. “The Under Armour brand is one of the most recognizable on the field and it’s a testament to the NM State brand that we can partner with such a great company.”
“New Mexico State University is an exciting addition to our roster of NCAA partners and we look forward to providing the most innovative performance gear for student-athletes, staff, alums and fans for years to come,” said Sean Sullivan, Under Armour Director of Sports Marketing.
The new official outfitter agreement includes marketing entitlement that will complement Under Armour’s brand marketing campaigns through print and venue presence at the University.
