Raymond Hokanson, UTA alumnus and eSix Sportswear founder and owner, is the creative mind behind UTA Athletics fan merchandise and gear. The local Division Street shop fuels student and alumni engagement at sporting events.
Launched in 1990, the original “one-man operation” company has partnered with the university since. In 2016, eSix became a sponsor of UTA Athletics and continues to be a pillar for the department.
Hokanson said the department helps him determine what items are needed for specific games, giveaways and events. Items range from T-shirts to rally towels and other Maverick-themed attire.
Collaborations with UTA Athletics began with Hokanson and his wife attending games as season ticket holders and Maverick Club members.
