ADRENALIN, INC. SELECTED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT SAN ANTONIO TO MANAGE SPONSORSHIPS FOR THE ATHLETIC PROGRAM
Colo. – October 2, 2006 – Adrenalin, Inc.
(www.goadrenalin.com), The Brand Expansion Team for sports
organizations, has been selected as the sponsorship agency
for the athletic program at the University of Texas at
San Antonio (UTSA). Through this agreement, Adrenalin will
manage and support corporate sponsorship initiatives for
the university’s
athletic department, including strategic planning and
tactical execution of the sponsorship program.
The University of Texas at San Antonio (www.utsa.edu)
serves the San Antonio metropolitan area and the broader
region of South Texas through programs and services offered
on three campuses. With more than 27,000 students enrolled
in 123 undergraduate and graduate degree programs, UTSA
is the second-largest component in The University of
Texas System and has been one of the state’s fastest-growing
public universities for much of the last decade.
UTSA is a member of the Southland Conference and San
Antonio’s only NCAA Division I institution. The
university fields teams in baseball, basketball, cross
country, golf, indoor and outdoor track and field, softball,
tennis, soccer and volleyball. UTSA athletic teams have
qualified for 10 NCAA championship events, and the Roadrunners
made school history in 2004 as both NCAA Tournament participant
and Men’s Final Four host. UTSA will host the NCAA
2008 Men’s Final Four and the 2010 Women’s
Final Four Basketball Championships. By 2010, UTSA will
have hosted 11 major NCAA Championships in a 13-year
period.
“Adrenalin has managed highly successful sponsorship
and marketing programs for universities and sports organizations
across the country, which makes their team a tremendous
asset for our university in expanding the sponsorship
program,” said Eric Buskirk, Assistant Athletic
Director for Marketing and Community Relations at UTSA. “One
thing that makes Adrenalin a particularly good fit for
UTSA is its experience supporting the needs of up-and-coming
sports organizations like UTSA which are building a national
reputation but which also have strong regional ties.
That will enable Adrenalin to develop a customized plan
that is an ideal fit for the specific needs of our university
and the corporate sponsors that we are building relationships
with. ”
“The University of Texas at San Antonio has a well-run
athletic program, an outstanding reputation as an academic
institution, deep ties with the local community, and a
rising profile nationally in athletics – all factors
that will contribute to the success of the sponsorship
program. Adrenalin will work closely with the university
to develop and implement a strategic plan that allows UTSA
to leverage strong relationships with sponsors as a key
means of enhancing the athletics program and the university
as a whole,” said Dave Smrek, Principal at Adrenalin.
