LIVERPOOL, N.Y.; Feb. 17, 2015 - Cascade and Maverik Lacrosse are now the official safety equipment suppliers for the Penn State University men's lacrosse program. Penn State will continue to wear Cascade helmets and will now exclusively use Maverik heads, shafts and protective equipment.
"We are thrilled with the opportunity to work with Penn State," said former Nittany Lion Drew Adams, Cascade and Maverik Marketing Manager. "Their program has incredibly high expectations and we look forward to supporting them as they continue to set a standard in college lacrosse."
The partnership will give Penn State players access to Maverik's constantly advancing product line, including the new Tank and Optik heads. Players will also receive custom protective equipment, including the M3 and Rome NXT gloves. The Cascade R helmet will continue to be the trusted helmet of choice.
"Our program is extremely excited about our partnership with Maverik and Cascade," said Penn State Head Coach Jeff Tambroni. "We have been a long-time partner with Cascade and have become very comfortable with the quality of their products. We are equally impressed with the quality of the Maverik product and have enjoyed working with such a first-class group."
The 2015 season is the 101st in program history, and the fifth under Tambroni. The Nittany Lions are competing in the Big Ten Conference for its inaugural season of lacrosse and are 35-24 under Tambroni, including a 2013 NCAA Tournament berth.
