Washington State University student athletes will remain clad in Nike gear through June of 2028 thanks to an extended partnership between the WSU Athletics and the apparel giant.

“We are thrilled to extend our partnership with Nike and enhance the athletic experience for our student-athletes by having them outfitted with the industry leader in athletic apparel,” Anne McCoy, WSU Athletics director, said. “Nike has been a tremendous partner for many years. Their commitment to innovation and excellence makes it one of the preeminent brands in the world and aligns perfectly with our vision for Cougar Athletics.”

The relationship between WSU and Nike dates back to 2009, which was extended via a 10-year agreement in 2015.

More information about the extended agreement is available on the WSU Athletics website.
