SHAWNEE – The Oklahoma Baptist University Department of Athletics announced today a five-year extension of its partnership with Nike through BSN SPORTS. The new agreement, which went into effect on June 1, is part of BSN SPORTS' Collegiate Select program, which aims to make BSN SPORTS a one-stop provider for all collegiate athletic, intramural, club and staff apparel and equipment for all Division I, II, III, and NAIA schools.
The new agreement provides OBU Athletics with numerous incentives in the form of discounts and rewards, along with incentives for on-field achievements and additional marketing and promotional opportunities.
