Merchants Bank announced on Oct. 31 Indiana University (IU) basketball players Trey Galloway and Malik Reneau have re-signed as brand ambassadors.
In their second year as brand ambassadors, Galloway and Reneau will continue to support Merchants Bank’s overall goal of further growing awareness of its various lines of business amongst residents of the state of Indiana and beyond. In addition to promoting business offerings such as small business lending, business banking, traditional community banking, residential mortgage banking, multifamily housing, and more, the teammates will act as representatives of the company both at events and within the community.
Galloway, who has returned for his fifth year as a guard with the Indiana Hoosiers, has become a leading pillar to this team as they head into the 2024-2025 season. He boasts several successes from his performance last season, including being recognized as a Big Ten Sportsmanship Award honoree. Trey ranked eighth in the conference in assists, 10th in assist/turnover ratio, and also averaged career highs in points, steals, and minutes played.
“Trey and Malik’s energy, commitment, and work ethic are at the forefront of everything they do as players, teammates, and brand ambassadors,” Merchants Bank Chairman Michael F. Petrie said. “These are two stellar individuals who we see adding great value to everything we’re building here at Merchants Bank. Our team is thrilled to be working with them for a second season and for the opportunity to continue to be a part of their journey with Indiana Hoosier basketball.”
Entering his third season as a forward for Indiana, Reneau, now an upperclassman on the team, was one of only two Indiana players to start all 33 games last season. He wrapped the 2023-2024 season, ranking 14th within the Big Ten conference for points per game – a career high – and 19th in rebounds. He was recognized within the 2023 All-Big Ten Honorable Mention list and named to the 2023 Saatva Empire Classic All-Tournament Team.
“Happy to be back and partnering with Merchants Bank again this season,” Galloway said. “I appreciate getting the opportunity to see just how involved and engaged Merchants Bank is within the communities they support and serve.”
Reneau added, “I get the chance to further grow alongside Merchants Bank and see the successes we achieve together within each of our passions. It’s going to be a great year!”
