Baystate Health Expands UMass Sponsorship With On-Field Branding

Amherst, Mass. – September 07, 2026 -- Baystate Health will place its logo on both 25-yard lines at McGuirk Alumni Stadium starting with the 2026 UMass football season, marking the first time a brand logo has appeared on the field's gridiron in the stadium's history since 1965. The move expands a multi-year partnership between UMass Athletics, Baystate Health and Learfield's UMass Sports Properties, deepening a sponsorship relationship that has run for more than a decade.
