Usana signs on as ‘official supplement supplier’ of USA Nordic athletes
The Utah-based company has sponsored US winter sport entities before. Since 2010, it has been a partner of Women’s Ski Jumping USA, which merged into USA Nordic last fall.
Usana-sponsored athletes competing in the upcoming Winter Olympics include veteran Nordic Combined athlete Bryan Fletcher and ski jumpers Michael Glasder and Sarah Hendrickson, who secured their spots to Korea during last month's trial event in Park City, Utah. The remaining Team USA spots will be announced later this month.
“We are fortunate enough to have the opportunity to support these accomplished and skilled individuals as they work toward their athletic dreams," said Dan Macuga, Usana chief of communications and marketing.
"Usana is proud and honored to be trusted by these elite athletes as they prepare for the biggest event of the year, and look forward to seeing them represent our country next month."
