Jersey Express News Release
Newark, NJ. Inspired by a commitment to sponsor our communities, the ABA Newark Express Basketball Organization is proud to announce its second season in Newark, NJ and PNC Bank as its Official Community Sponsor.
In a quest to provide quality entertainment, the organization has collaborated with community enthusiast PNC Bank. PNC is a highly diversified and growing financial services organization spanning the retail, business and corporate markets. Bill Best, Senior Vice President said, "It's a slam-dunk for PNC Bank's Community Development Banking group to align ourselves with the hometown team. Our continued support is a commitment to the Newark Express and their mission to provide opportunities and inspiration to Newark's diverse communities."
We are continuing to work with our community partners to bring exciting, family entertainment to the citizens in and around Newark," said Jacqui Halyard, co-owner and general manager of the Newark Express. "It's a tremendous feeling knowing that many of our talented players, dancers, singers and game announcers are from Newark. Plus the all-around support that PNC Bank has provided from the start is commendable."
Keep an eye open and a finger on the pulse of Newark. The Newark Express rolls into town this summer (exact date and location) and opens the season in November for another year of high-flying, above-the-rim basketball.
