UCLA women's soccer player Reilyn Turner has signed an NIL deal with Nike, becoming their first college student athlete partner. The reigning Pac-12 Freshman of the Year's agreement is the first direct athletic brand sponsorship of its kind.⁣
⁣
Many of the initial sponsorship deals signed by other college athletes have tended to be signed with more recognizable players with large social media followings. Turner has a much smaller social following which Nike intends to use to champion her local connection to the Los Angeles community, diverse background, and rise through the sport.⁣
