Celebration
of Women Athletes |
|

What a truly enjoyable yet long overdue celebration of our women athletes prior to
the days of Title IX. These women played for the love of the sport and expected and received little in return.
Hopefully that was all "undone" this weekend when over 110 women received their Varsity "M" and
entry to the M Club! In spite of a snowstorm, over 200 people looked on as the women were honored at a reception
and dinner on Friday evening at the Inn and Conference Center hosted by the Athletic Department and the M Club.
