NEW ORLEANS – Tulane Athletics and its multimedia rightsholder, Tulane Sports Properties, today announced Standard Mortgage Corporation as a new “Proud Partner of Tulane Athletics.”

Standard Mortgage Corporation, founded and headquartered in New Orleans for almost a century, will be highly visible across Tulane Athletics’ official platforms throughout the athletic season, including its football game sponsorship of Tulane vs. Tulsa on Nov. 13 at Yulman Stadium.

“The decision to become a ‘Proud Partner of Tulane Athletics’ was an easy one,” said Ella Baldwin, Senior Vice President of Marketing for Standard Mortgage. “We’re a fourth generation, locally owned company and we like to think our roots in New Orleans are almost as deep as Tulane’s. We’re looking forward to the future with the Green Wave!”

Tulane Sports Properties, the locally based LEARFIELD team and Tulane Athletics’ multimedia rightsholder, secured the new relationship. Tulane Sports Properties will oversee Standard Mortgage’s comprehensive corporate partner benefits that also include in-venue signage, exposure on the Tulane Sports Network radio broadcasts, and other digital marketing solutions.

“We are thrilled to have Standard Mortgage join our team at Tulane,” said Banks Shepherd, general manager of Tulane Sports Properties. “This partnership strongly aligns with our efforts to work with partners who, like the Tulane Green Wave, are also NOLA Built. We encourage all of our passionate Tulane fans and alumni to work with Standard Mortgage for their next home loan.”
