“Adidas is a global leader in the world of sport and we are thrilled to enter into this agreement,” said Vogel. “It became clear to us that Adidas will be a true partner as we strive to achieve excellence in all that we do. Our GW students, coaches and staff come to the Nation’s Capital to change the world and Adidas is perfectly positioned to join our team in this pursuit.”
