UPS planes are an integral part of the U of L experience, flying over students’ heads at a prolific rate. That partnership grows ever closer with a new development between the international shipping company and Louisville Athletics.
On Feb. 22, athletic director Vince Tyra announced that UPS is committing $5 million to the athletics department. The gift is part of a 13-year agreement that will create programs within athletics in support of student-athletes.
“We have established a terrific partnership with UPS over the last 20 years,” Tyra said. “We are now excited about the level of support and array of programs designed to strengthen this partnership.
