IRVINE, CA and MEMPHIS, TN — (Marketwire) — 12/09/11 — Paciolan, the leading provider of ticketing, marketing, and fundraising solutions in college athletics, announced today that the University of Memphis (“Memphis”) will be continuing its 28-year partnership with the company. A perennial powerhouse in college basketball, which they play at FedExForum, and one of the top programs for annual attendance, Memphis has been working with Paciolan since 1983.
“The Paciolan system gives us the freedom to create events and build innovative programs our way,” said Bill Lofton, associate athletic director of finance for the University of Memphis. “We also love the customer service we-ve been provided these past 28 years.
