The University of Evansville Athletics earns two bronze level NACMA Best of Awards, announced by the organization Thursday during the virtual award ceremony. This marks UE’s first NACMA award since 2006.

Designed by Assistant Director of Media Relations and Creative Communications Emily McMillan, earning the honors in both the Promotion Poster and Static Promotion AD categories.

The 2020-21 Evansville men’s basketball schedule poster represented the UE Athletics department in the Promotional Poster category, while the promotional efforts for the Evansville Athletics Mobile App earned third place in the Static Promotion option.
