USA Gymnastics male athlete of the year, Colin Van Wicklen, has signed a multi-year deal with York, Pennsylvania gymnastics brand Alpha Factor.

“It’s a special feeling having an entire company behind me.” Van Wicklen said in a statement. “When I go to a competition I know they have my back. With the Olympics coming up next year I feel very blessed to have them in my corner. When I first signed with Alpha Factor I was hurt and off National Team. Since then I have made a World Championship team, competed in a World Cup final and made the senior team 3 times in a row. The support of Alpha Factor has been incredible and they are a big reason why I have been so successful in the past year.”

Van Wicklen becomes one of the athletic brand’s most high-profile endorsers in the sport. The 23-year-old 12-time All-American from Texas is on track to be a strong contender for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. He first signed with Alpha Factor months before making his first U.S. World Team that was held in Doha, Qatar in 2018.

“From day one, when Olympic Champion Bart Conner helped introduce our Men’s line, we have had a cavalcade of important athletes wear our brand. And we could not be happier that the list includes Colin – welcome to the Alpha Factor team.” said Ashely Zimmerman, Alpha Factor’s Director of Business Development.
