Yesterday, Texas Capital joined SMU for the official unveiling of our jersey patch partnership spanning all 17 varsity programs, the first all-sports agreement of its kind for a Power Four athletics program in the state of Texas.
"Our students will proudly represent Texas Capital each time they compete," said Damon Evans, Director of Athletics at SMU. "SMU and Texas Capital have an unwavering commitment to this city, and we both share an ambition to be the very best at what we do. I'm excited to be partnering with an organization that shares the same values that we have, but just as important, they believe in the future of this program."
"In many ways, this is so very fitting for these two institutions - for Texas Capital and SMU. Like Texas Capital, SMU has big ambitions, big aspirations," said Jay Hartzell, President of SMU. "This is the kind of investment and the kind of partnership that shows the confidence that somebody like Texas Capital has in SMU, but also shows our aspirations and our goals as we go forward."
"SMU has a far reach and made a huge difference in many, many lives. We are excited to be a part of a winning program for years to come," said Rob C. Holmes, Chairman, President & CEO of Texas Capital. "We are looking forward to not only the athletic sponsorship, but doing more academically as well. We hope this can become an even broader and stronger relationship."
