ECAC Hockey, ADAPT Nutrition Announce New Partnership

Clarkson Alums Brady Parker and Brady Egan Bring Business Back to League

DANBURY, Conn. – ECAC Hockey has announced a new partnership with ADAPT Nutrition as the Preferred Hydration Partner of the ECAC and official sponsor of the Men’s and Women’s Defender of the Week awards. 

“We are excited to kick off a partnership with ADAPT Nutrition,” said ECAC Hockey Associate Commissioner Nick Sczerbinski. “We, as a league, value student-athletes past and present and look for any opportunity to support them in their endeavors on and off the ice. Brady and Brady chose to play in our league during their time at Clarkson and are now choosing to partner with us via their innovative and successful business. We look forward to building this relationship and playing a role in the growth of ADAPT across all markets.”

“Partnering with the ECAC brings Adapt full circle,” said co-founder and Clarkson alum Brady Parker. “It’s one of the most competitive and respected conferences in college hockey, producing elite athletes and leaders year after year. The ECAC shaped who we are as players and as founders, and we’re grateful for the chance to give back to a conference that created so many opportunities for us. We’ve built a great relationship with the ECAC and its teams. Several programs have been using Adapt in their locker rooms over the last two seasons, making this partnership a natural fit built on shared standards of performance, integrity, and excellence.”

About ADAPT
Adapt Nutrition is an all-natural electrolyte brand built on performance, recovery, and transparency.

The formulation was developed in collaboration with leading dietitians and strength and conditioning coaches, including Clarkson’s own Tad Johnson, M.Ed., CSCS. Today, Adapt is trusted by NCAA programs, professional athletes, and Olympians who rely on hydration they can trust to perform at their peak.
