OHSAA Announces Partnership with Musco Lighting
Musco to provide educational programming for on-field safety and playability
 
COLUMBUS, Ohio – The Ohio High School Athletic Association has announced a new partnership with Musco Lighting to enhance the student-athlete and fan experience at member schools.
 
As the official and exclusive sports lighting provider, Musco will provide educational programming and other resources to raise awareness of lighting practices that help improve on-field safety and playability, heighten gameday atmosphere, expand field usage and extend the longevity and lifetime value of their lighting systems.
Musco also offers free on-site lighting audits that help facilities assess the performance of their existing lighting and understand key considerations for their next project.
 
“We are proud to welcome Musco Lighting as a valued partner of the OHSAA,” said Doug Ute, OHSAA Executive Director. “Musco’s long-standing commitment to excellence and innovation in sports lighting aligns perfectly with our mission to provide outstanding experiences for student-athletes across Ohio. This partnership will help elevate the quality of our events and ensure our schools continue to benefit from industry-leading lighting solutions.”
 
Musco has specialized in sports lighting and technology for nearly 50 years, with industry-leading innovations in glare reduction and light control. In addition to maintaining numerous state-level partnerships, Musco is a long-time supporter of national organizations including the National Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association (NIAAA) and National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA).
 
“Our partnership with OHSAA builds on a commitment to providing safer, more enjoyable sports facilities for athletes of all ages and levels of play,” said John Kaufman, a longtime Musco representative in the state of Ohio. “My colleague, Brandon Werling, and I are proud to serve as trusted resources for schools in the state.”
