BALTIMORE — Morgan State University has announced a multi-year, multimillion-dollar uniform and apparel partnership with Under Armour.

The global performance brand will now be the official outfitter for the Morgan State Athletic Department and its teams.

The uniform and apparel agreement with Under Armour will last for five-years, and the affiliation will debut with the first game of the season in men's and women's basketball on November 25, 2020.

The agreement with Under Armour will allow Morgan State to provide Under Armour uniforms, apparel, gear and equipment for its complete roster of student-athletes, coaches, athletic department personnel and the campus community.

MSU said it's a tremendous opportunity for the the school to be associated with an award-winning brand headquartered in Baltimore and further illustrates Morgan's continued commitment to excellence—on and off the field.

"Morgan State is excited to begin our new partnership with Under Armour as we look to provide our student-athletes the best possible resources to excel on the national stage," said MSU Athletic Director Edward Scott, Ph.D. "As Maryland's Preeminent Public Urban Research University, this newly formed partnership between Morgan and Under Armour makes perfect sense for the City of Baltimore, Morgan State University and Under Armour. As we went through our process it became clear that Under Armour is uniquely positioned to tell our story and to help grow the brand of Morgan Athletics."
