Jeremy Patterson Joins NAIA’s National Drug Testing and Education Committee (NDTEC)

As a seasoned sports marketing consultant and advocate for athlete development, Patterson brings a wealth of experience in athlete representation and NIL initiatives. His appointment is a strategic move to strengthen the committee's educational outreach and drug testing efforts across NAIA institutions.

 

The NDTEC, chaired by Dr. James Geiselman, plays a pivotal role in shaping drug testing policies and delivering educational resources across NAIA institutions. Meetings are held as needed, with increased frequency during the spring season. Jeremy's involvement will contribute to ongoing efforts to maintain integrity in collegiate sports and ensure student-athlete well-being.

 

"We are excited to welcome Jeremy to the committee," said Dr. Geiselman. "His background in sports marketing and athlete advocacy will be an asset as we continue our work in drug education and testing."
