ORLANDO – The UNI athletic marketing staff was honored Wednesday by the National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators (NACMA) with a Gold Award for Revenue Generation.
The honor recognizes UNI's use of old championship banners from the McLeod Center as a fundraiser. The banners were dated and in need of replacement. Instead of discarding the old banners, Panther Athletics set up an auction and raised discretionary funds for the department. The award honored UNI for the marketing surrounding the auction and the strategies put in place to make it successful.
"It's an honor for our department to be recognized by NACMA and our collegiate peers for these awards," said Nathan Christensen.
