1969 DGWS Outdoor Track and Field Championships

Athletics championship event in Texas January 2025 1969 DGWS Outdoor Track and Field Championships 250px Texas San Marcos, Texas May 8–9, 1969 Southwest Texas State College 1970 The 1969 DGWS Outdoor Track And Field Championships were the first Division for Girls' and Women's Sports-sanctioned track meet to determine the individual and team national champions of women's collegiate track and field events in the United States. They were contested May 8−9, 1969 in San Marcos, Texas at Southwest Texas State College and won by the Texas Woman's Pioneers track and field team. There were not separate Division I, II, and III championships for outdoor track and field until 1981. The meet would be called the DGWS Championships until 1972, when the DGWS changed its name to the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW). The meeting was criticized for failing to advertise to interested teams, as only 15 schools participated and no schools from California were included. Additionally, a controversial rule was implemented that excluded 'club' athletes although exceptions were made.Cherrie Bridges Leads Way https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-terre-haute-tribune-cherrie-bridges/163847152/ The Terre Haute Tribune 24 January 2025 9 10 May 1969 Team standings Scoring: 10 points for a 1st-place finish, 8 points for 2nd, 6 points for 3rd, 4 points for 4th, 2 points for 5th, and 1 point for 6th.
