OREGON ATHLETICS CELEBRATES title ix
We’ve been talking about it all year long, and now the 50th anniversary of Title IX is finally here. As we take a moment to let the meaning of this milestone really sink in, Oregon athletics is celebrating its current and former student-athletes and the opportunities for the next generation of Ducks to accomplish anything they set their minds to.
Watch the video below to see past, present, and future Ducks collide in a joyful moment that we hope leaves you inspired, hopeful, and determined to make the next fifty years of women’s athletics even better.
The University of Oregon athletics department is also celebrating milestone achievements in the history of Oregon athletics as well the progress of the department’s fundraising campaign to mark the anniversary. Throughout the day on Thursday 6/23, the UO athletic department is using its social media channels to celebrate landmarks in the Ducks’ history of women’s sports. To support the Go Do Anything campaign, Oregon athletics will also auction off two specially designed pairs of Air Jordan I Mids, packaged in commemorative boxes.
