"From the Sidelines to the Headlines is an expansive book aimed at filling in the gaps in coverage of half a century of women's intercollegiate sports. Former Trinity athlete Betsy Gerhardt Pasley pulls from hundreds of long-forgotten documents and dozens of interviews with former students, coaches, and administrators to tell the fascinating, multifaceted story of women's sports at Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas. While the book focuses primarily on the post-Title IX years between 1972 and 1999, its scope extends to this liberal arts school's founding in 1869, illuminating the century-long evolution of women in competitive sports, at Trinity and elsewhere, before Title IX. The story, told alongside the cultural shifts that formed the social and athletic context for female athletes of the day, also documents the decision Trinity and other institutions of higher learning faced after Title IX: Should they adhere to a commercial model, in which a focus on athletics often overshadowed academics, or strive for a more balanced student-athlete, nonscholarship model? Trinity chose the latter and has decades of national championships and academic accolades to show for it"--Provided by publisher. |
