From Press Release
The Lehigh University men’s lacrosse program and Warrior Sports announced a multi-year partnership this week, naming Warrior as the Mountain Hawks’ official equipment supplier. Warrior, who outfits more than a dozen other Division I programs across the country, will supply all of Lehigh’s equipment needs in the seasons ahead.
“On behalf of the entire Lehigh Lacrosse program, I am thrilled to begin this partnership with Warrior Lacrosse,” said Lehigh head coach Kevin Cassese, who enters his 10th season as the Mountain Hawks’ head coach this spring. “Warrior has been an industry leader for the entirety of my career as a coach and as a player, and I’m excited that our men will get the opportunity to represent the Warrior brand and wear the Warrior gear for the next four years.”
Lehigh is one of the most decorated programs in collegiate lacrosse history, having won eight pre-NCAA era national titles. More recently, the Mountain Hawks have made six straight Patriot League Tournament appearances, winning the championship in both 2012 and 2013. During the 2012 season, Lehigh recorded 14 wins (program record) and was ranked as high as No. 4 in the nation. The Mountain Hawks will be releasing their 2017 spring schedule in the coming weeks – visit www.lehighsports.com for more information.
“We’re thrilled to add a program of Lehigh’s caliber to our roster of college partners, and look forward to working with Coach Cassese,” said Owen Murtagh, Brand Manager of Warrior Lacrosse. “We’re excited for the seasons ahead and are proud to supply these players with the best and most innovative equipment in the game.”
