Arizona Athletics is proud to celebrate Black History Month each year as it gives us an opportunity to share the incredible stories of some of our amazing student-athletes both past and present.
This year will be no different as Arizona Athletics will highlight these stories over the course of the month and introduce a new Black Heritage logo, produced by the university.
Â
Throughout the month of February, Arizona Athletics will use its social media accounts to highlight current student-athletes, as we continue to emphasize our core values on diversity and inclusion from the strategic plan. The A-Club will also focus on Black letterwinners as they reflect on their time at the University of Arizona and the importance of this month.
Â
In partnership with the University, Arizona Athletics will be hosting an event called "Breaking Down Barriers with Arizona Athletics". This event will honor former student-athletes and coaches who broke color barriers and became the first Black student-athlete/coach, in their respective sports, at UArizona. This virtual event will be held on
Monday, February 15 at 6:30 p.m. Click here for the Zoom registration.
