The Northern Essex Knights teams will be hitting their respective fields and courts in style next fall thanks to a new partnership with athletic apparel company Under Armour.
Running through the 2022-2023 academic year, the contract is administered by The Graphic Edge, Under Armour’s largest U.S. distributor.
“This is an exciting time to be a part of NECC Athletics and this partnership with Under Armour is further evidence of that. Moving forward, our athletes will be outfitted in the highest quality uniforms and apparel.” Northern Essex Athletic Director Dan Blair said.
Through the partnership, Under Armour will provide student-athletes with game uniforms, footwear, warm-up suits and other accessories, Blair said. The agreement also includes incentive programs for championship teams.
Northern Essex competes as part of the National Junior College Athletic Association and sponsors varsity sports including baseball, basketball, golf, and track.
