 Indiana State Athletics and Union Health announced a three-year agreement that would see Union Health gain naming rights to various elements within Hulman Center.

The agreement will include prominent placement of the Union Health logo on the Hulman Center basketball court, as well as naming rights to the Mezzanine and Suite. Additionally, Union Health will sponsor the Indiana State basketball final score graphics that will be posted on the main Sycamore social media channels.

“It is a great privilege for Indiana State University to partner with an outstanding health system like Union Health,” Indiana State President Dr. Mike Godard said. “This collaboration enhances the visibility of both organizations while ensuring that our student-athletes receive essential, high-quality care. As two of Terre Haute’s largest employers, Indiana State and Union Health are leading by example in community partnership, demonstrating our shared commitment to improving the health and well-being of the region and its residents.”

“As two of the largest employers in the Wabash Valley, Union Health and Indiana State University are proud cornerstones of our community,” Steve Holman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Union Health, said. “Both are equivocally passionate about serving others, with aligned missions of transforming lives and bettering the health and wellness of our communities. This partnership is, without a doubt, an overall win for Union Health, Indiana State University, communities within the Wabash Valley and those far beyond.”

“We are excited to announce this new partnership with Union Health,” Indiana State Director of Athletics Nathan Christensen said. “Indiana State University and Union Health are major entities within our community with matching values of creating a healthy lifestyle and serving our communities. This transformational partnership elevates the experience of our student–athletes and programs. I hope this will inspire everyone that loves Indiana State Athletics.”

As part of the agreement, Union Health and its physicians will continue to support Indiana State Athletics through health screenings for student-athletes, campus visits by physicians for evaluations, and medical service provided for both home and away competitions. Union Health has also provided clinics on game days for student-athletes, while also supporting the Indiana State Athletic Trainers in scheduling medical tests, follow-up meetings, and coordinating medical care.

Healthier, together.
