Alexandria, LA, October 12, 2026 — Four high school athletes from the Central Louisiana (Cenla) region have entered into Name-Image-Likeness (NIL) agreements with Marble Slab Creamery, a company operating locations in Alexandria and Pineville. As part of these partnerships, the student athletes have developed and are now featuring their own unique signature ice cream flavors.

The NIL deals allow college and high school athletes to profit from their name, image, and likeness. This initiative marks a notable collaboration between local student athletes and a well-known ice cream franchise in the Cenla area.

Details regarding the specific names of the four athletes involved, the names of their signature ice cream flavors, or the exact duration and financial terms of these NIL agreements were not provided in the information available. The partnerships specifically involve Marble Slab Creamery stores located in Alexandria and Pineville.

The concept behind these NIL deals with Marble Slab Creamery is for each participating athlete to create an ice cream flavor that reflects their personal tastes or identity. These custom flavors are then made available for purchase by the public at the designated store locations.

This trend highlights a growing opportunity for student athletes to engage in entrepreneurial activities and build their personal brands while still competing in high school sports. Further information about the athletes and their flavor creations is anticipated.
