Under the agreement, Under Armour will provide equipment for 15 varsity sports. University officials reported that the agreement will include baseball, women’s basketball and golf in 2017-18. Men’s basketball, cross country, track in 2018-19. Women’s tennis will join in 2019, volleyball and softball will join in 2020-21.

The addition of Wichita State increases Under Armour’s roster of NCAA partners to more than 15 Division-I schools.
