Overview
- Mark Andrews led the fourth annual Dexcom U Signing Day Camp on July 11, marking the program’s inaugural nationwide open call for college athletes with Type 1 diabetes.
- Dexcom U, launched in 2021 through Andrews’s partnership with Dexcom, remains the only NIL program solely for collegiate athletes managing Type 1 diabetes and provides tailored financial and mentorship support.
- Leveraging his own diagnosis at age nine, Andrews used the event to press for expanded availability of insulin, test strips and continuous glucose monitors for all who need them.
- In 2024, Dexcom honored Andrews’s advocacy by naming a production line at its Mesa, Arizona facility after him in recognition of his impact on young diabetics.
- Following the nationwide open call, Dexcom U will soon announce its 2025 roster of athletes spanning sports from football to beach volleyball.
