1915 UNL article about athletics


Recommended Posts

Nebraska's climate breeds the sturdiest of physical manhood. Nebraska industries, practically all carried on in the open air, build up that physical manhood to a remarkable degree. Why should not our state be supreme in every phase of athletic competition? Give us the equipment, the coaches and the proper spirit, and success is a foregone conclusion.

 

 

I thought this was an interesting read.
