Celebrate Coach Mac’s LEGACY

Pledge For the Jays
OMAHA, Neb. — The Creighton University Athletic Department has partnered with Athletics On The Line to give Bluejay fans a new and unique way to empower their favorite teams. An Omaha-based company, Athletics On The Line provides a platform that engages fans in charitable giving to support CU student-athletes through multiple campaigns.
"Supporting our student-athletes in benefitting from the use of their name, image, and likeness is one of our strategic priorities and critical to achieving our goal of winning BIG EAST championships," said Creighton McCormick Endowed Athletic Director Marcus Blossom. "These young men and women are great representatives of Creighton and I thank you in advance for supporting this initiative."
Creighton fans can help provide resources to recruit, retain and develop student-athletes, with the goal of the initiative being to provide fans an avenue to celebrate each win, assist and three-pointer this season while directly supporting student-athletes.
