HOW TO GIVE
The Locker Sponsorship Program was established at Ashland to honor the legacy of all those who have contributed to Eagle Basketball's rich tradition. Ashland alumni can now “Take your Place of Honor” in the men's varsity locker room by sponsoring a locker. A Gift commitment of $1,000 payable over 4 years will ensure a locker in your honor. Locker sponsors receive a miniature locker engraved with their name, jersey number, position and years at AU. An identical plaque is placed on a current player’s locker who wears the same jersey number. It's a very meaningful way of connecting our present players with the past.
If you have any questions, please contact Ralph Tomassi, Senior Assoc. V.P. for Development at 419-289-5075 or at [email protected]
Thanks for your consideration and I hope to see you at one or more Eagle games soon.
All the Best & GO EAGLES!
