UNOH students work on engine donated by Intersport
Intersport, the award-winning agency and operator of the ServiceTitan Elite Trades Championship Series (ETCS), has generously donated automotive engines to the University of Northwestern Ohio (UNOH). The donation will enhance the hands-on learning experience for students in UNOH’s automotive and high performance motorsports education programs, providing them with industry-standard equipment to practice on as they prepare for careers in the automotive field.
The engines used at ETCS in the U.S. Auto Tech National Championship Driven by Yokohama (USATNC) will enable UNOH students to develop critical skills on real-world equipment and better prepare them for success in the automotive industry.
“UNOH is a leader in automotive education, greatly complementing the national platform that the ServiceTitan Elite Trades Championship Series provides to the next generation of auto tech professionals and students,” said ETCS General Manager Scott Mendel. “This engine donation gives UNOH students the opportunity to develop and challenge their skills in a hands-on environment, bridging the gap between education and real-world application.”
“We are incredibly grateful to Intersport for their generous donation of two engines to the University of Northwestern Ohio. These engines will provide our students with invaluable hands-on experience, further enhancing their training and preparing them for successful careers in the automotive industry,” said UNOH Vice President of Business Development Trey Becker. “Partnerships like this are essential to our mission of providing cutting-edge world-class education, and we thank Intersport for their continued support.”
The fourth annual U.S. Auto Tech National Championship Driven by Yokohama will air on CBS Sports Network this December as part of the ETCS broadcast series, which aims to grow the trades and celebrate highly skilled tradespeople across the country who have not traditionally received the recognition they deserve.
