Over the last decade,\u00a0Nike Basketball<\/strong> has sponsored approximately 80 percent of men’s and women\u2019s Division 1 Final Four basketball teams. This year, though, the Beaverton-brand pulls off a complete sweep, sponsoring all eight teams heading into this weekend’s games in Houston and Indianapolis.<\/p>\n

All teams will wear Nike apparel and footwear, starting with the men in Houston where the\u00a0University of Oklahoma faces Villanova University followed by Syracuse University taking on University of North Carolina. Then, Sunday’s women’s Final Four in Indianapolis pins University of Connecticut against Oregon State University while Syracuse University and University of Washington face off to close the double-header.<\/p>\n

Since 2001, Nike has swept the Final Four 11 times – nine men’s and two women’s. Moreover, Nike schools holistically represented\u00a069 percent of this year\u2019s men\u2019s tournament field and 58 percent of the women\u2019s field, respectively.<\/p>\n

Nike’s continued dominance in March will ultimately lead to two more Swoosh schools crowned as national championships. We’ll see who next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
