Beyond Title IX

Tom Taylor concludes the Stanford Daily's feature series on Stanford women's sports with a look ahead, asking how women’s sports will change in the future and what part Stanford, ever the innovator, will play in those changes.

He hears from two former Cardinal athletes who grew up in the era of Title IX: Kerri Walsh ‘00, a three-time Olympic gold medalist and perhaps the greatest beach volleyball player the sport has ever seen, and Julie Foudy ‘93, a member of the historic 1999 World Cup Champion U.S. women’s soccer team and a three-time Olympic medalist herself.

Last week, Renee Donovan took us inside the life of a female athlete at Stanford, junior swimmer Andie Taylor. Taylor says she “loves chocolate milk, often smells like chlorine and wakes up before most CS majors finish coding from the night before.”
