IU Athletics Announces Launch of Women's Excellence Initiative

Bloomington, Indiana – IU Vice President and Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Scott Dolson announced today the launch of the Indiana University Athletics Women's Excellence, a fundraising effort designed to elevate our 13 women's varsity sports and to enhance the overall student-athlete experience of IU's nearly 350 female student-athletes.

As the name suggests, the funds generated from Indiana Athletics Women's Excellence will exclusively support IU's women's varsity programs and its student-athletes. Enhanced athletic, academic and leadership opportunities are among the areas that will be targeted.

"We are extremely proud of our tradition of success in women's athletics, which includes a national team title, numerous Big Ten Championships and Olympic champions," said Dolson.
