November 28, 2012 - Frontier League (FL) Florence Freedom FLORENCE, KY - The Florence Freedom are pleased to welcome UC Health as the new naming rights partner for its stadium and as the official health care provider of the Freedom for the next decade.

UC Health is the affiliated health system of the University of Cincinnati and is the region's only academic medical center that specializes in solving the most complex medical cases.

The stadium, formerly known as "The Home of the Freedom," will now be proudly called UC Health Stadium.

UC Health will also become the exclusive and official health care provider of Florence Freedom with Angelo Colosimo, MD, the Medical Director of the UC Health Sports Medicine Institute, serving as the team's physician.

"This is a great day for the Freedom and the city of Florence," Freedom president and owner Clint Brown said. "Securing our naming rights partner was mission number one this offseason and we're really excited about our relationship moving forward with UC Health."

UC Health Stadium will host more than 200 events each year including the Freedom's 48 home game schedule, the Kentucky High School Ninth Region baseball championship, 160 youth games and 2-5 major concert events.

Each UC Health Stadium event will continue bringing revenue into the Florence community and neighboring hotels and restaurants through the 2022 season.

UC Health University Hospital Chief Operating Officer Nancy Barone looks forward to the partnership with the Freedom.

"Given the strength of our Sports Medicine Institute and our other highly specialized programs, this partnership was a match made in baseball heaven," she said. "We're excited to share our name with such a strong and well-respected community partner, and we're thrilled to provide the medical care and support to such a fine group of athletes."

Fans can look forward to changes in the marquee, scoreboard, stadium entrance, website and more in the months to come as the ballpark transforms into UC Health Stadium. An official unveiling of the stadium will come in the spring of 2013.
