Corporate sponsors were recognized between games Thursday.
Campbellsville University recognized its corporate sponsors in-between the women's and men's basketball games Thursday night against West Virginia Tech.

"I was extremely pleased with the turnout of corporate sponsors which I believe is the largest ever," said Chuck Vaughn, director of the Big Maroon Club. "Campbellsville University is blessed to have so many generous and loyal corporate sponsors. Without their marvelous support our athletic program and athletes would not have been able to achieve the successes and growth over the last few years."

Each year the university athletic department is supported by the generous contributions of its corporate sponsors as gifts from these sponsors enable the CU student-athletes to compete at the highest levels and help insure that all the athletic programs have the needed resources to build winning teams.

"Campbellsville University values our corporate sponsors who are generously supporting our athletics programs," said CU President Dr. Michael V. Carter. "Our corporate sponsors are essential to CU's student-athletes being able to have excellent facilities and to become even more competitive in intercollegiate athletics. We say thank you to all those who are corporate sponsors of the Campbellsville University athletic programs."

The sponsors were acknowledged as they are introduced by Athletic Director, Rusty Hollingsworth; Vice-President for Development, Benji Kelly, Carter and Vaughn. The sponsors in attendance were each presented with a special gift to express the university's appreciation for their support.

"This night is a great way each year for us to extend a public ‘Thank you' to each of our corporate sponsors, who are devotedly committed to aiding us in our mission as an athletics department," said Hollingsworth.
