Fifty years of Title IX got a Portland State-focused retrospective recently, as Tracklandia's Shannon Rowbury hosted a roundtable discussion on the impact of the landmark legislation with several Viking stakeholders.
Portland State Hall of Famer and former softball coach Teri Mariani joined Athletics Director John Johnson, head women's basketball coach Chelsey Gregg and women's soccer player Sidney O'billovich on a panel with Rowbury, herself a three-time Olympic track & field runner.
Topics discussed include the impact of Title IX at the time of the legislation, the changes over the years and what progress still needs to be made.
The panel discussion can be viewed on Tracklandia's YouTube page.
