Alum donates to burgeoning basketball program
A&M-San Antonio alumnus Ryan Bergmann ’09, a longtime sports fan, was excited to see the Jaguar basketball program begin in fall 2024. As a way to give back and support Jaguar Athletics, he became one of the first-ever donors to the program.
Bergmann graduated with honors and a degree in business administration. Now a successful attorney and the founder of Bergmann Law Firm PLLC, Bergmann is proud to contribute to the University’s growth and success.
“Being able to write checks, not for personal gain, but to support other students, is a testament to the success of our University,” Bergmann said. “It's an awesome feeling to be able to come back and make those contributions.”
Bergmann’s gift will directly impact student-athletes by providing financial support for various program needs, including travel, equipment and much more as the program grows. His donation is particularly meaningful as A&M-San Antonio continues to expand its athletic programs, fostering a competitive and enriching environment for student-athletes.
“Ryan’s commitment to the future of Jaguar Athletics is truly inspiring,” said A&M-San Antonio Athletic Director Darnell Smith. “His generosity ensures that our student-athletes have the resources they need to compete at a high level while excelling academically. This type of alumni support plays a crucial role in the continued growth of our athletic programs.”
