LVHN Named Exclusive Sports Medicine Provider for Colonial League Championships

The Colonial League for Interscholastic Sports, Inc., a Lehigh Valley organization that facilitates and administers athletic competition among their 13 member schools, has named Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN) its exclusive sports medicine provider of the Colonial League Championships. The championship tournaments are held for both boys and girls events, including soccer, field hockey, golf, cross country, basketball, wresting, baseball, softball, tennis, track and field, volleyball and competitive spirit.

As part of the agreement, LVHN will provide support to the Colonial League in the form of athletic training and medical supplies at the league’s championship tournaments, as well as guest speakers for various events at Colonial League member schools.

“The Colonial League and Lehigh Valley Health Network have been informally working together for many years, and so it is with great excitement that our partnership has been formalized.” Colonial League President Bryan Geist said. “LVHN has always been committed to giving back to the communities it serves, and we are truly appreciative of this opportunity and the great benefit it will be to our schools and our students.”

The partnership is effective immediately and will run through the end of the 2023 school year.

“We will provide a robust level of medical services which will help safeguard student athletes during playoff games,” said Dr, Gabe Lewullis, LVHN’s medical director of sports medicine. “LVHN is proud

to partner with Colonial League schools to provide enhanced sports medicine care.”

LVHN has a team of more than two dozen certified athletic trainers who provide care to student athletes and professional teams throughout the region. Several Colonial League schools already use LVHN for their athletic training services.
