DALLAS - Jesuit Dallas is excited to announce a five-year partnership with Under Armour and BSN SPORTS to serve as the official uniform, apparel, footwear, and accessories provider for Ranger athletics.
Coaches, staff, and student athletes will receive the same innovative and technology-driven sportswear as worn by some of the world's most-recognized athletes and globally reputable university partners while working with BSN SPORTS, one of the leading marketers, manufacturers and distributors of sporting goods, apparel, and equipment in the nation.
"We are thrilled to announce our new partnership with Under Armour," Jesuit Dallas Director of Athletics
Kyle Herrema said. "There is a natural alignment between our community and the Under Armour brand, highlighted by alumnus Jordan Spieth '11, and his impact as one of UA's signature athletes. From the beginning, Under Armour made us feel like a priority, and we are excited about the opportunities this partnership will bring to our student-athletes and our school community."
"Jesuit has always meant a lot to me and was a major part of my development, so it's awesome to see them partner with Under Armour," offered Spieth, a three-time major champion and former world No. 1 in golf. "I've been with UA for a long time because I believe in what they do and how their gear performs, so I'm excited for the next generation of Jesuit athletes to experience that same level of innovation."
Under Armour is regarded by many as the premier brand in the athletic industry and the company's eye-catching logo has become a cultural icon. The agreement, which includes discounts on athlete and coach gear, will amplify the Jesuit Dallas brand through increased marketing and promotional opportunities.
"We're proud to partner with Dallas Jesuit High School," shared Michael Lomas, Under Armour Director of Team Sales. "Our mission is to support athletes in being their best, and we look forward to equipping these young men with innovative performance gear that helps them train and compete at their highest level."
An all-boys Catholic high school serving nearly 1,150 students with one of the most historically successful athletic programs in Texas, Jesuit Dallas sponsors 22 varsity sports and has been a member of the University Interscholastic League (UIL) since 2004, competing at the UIL's highest level. The Rangers have won 133 state titles across 15 sports since 1954.
