: Had a read on the reference. Haven't seen anything on the reference to indicate her being named as such in 1979. Feel free to direct me to a reference to look it up if's it there. Thanks. Ominae (talk) 06:01, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ominae I'm not sure how you managed to read the print reference. It says, "In 1979 the South Dakota Sportswriters Association named her as the Female College Athlete of the Year." SL93 (talk) 06:16, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

SL93 Appears that I read the wrong reference. I'll go ahead and mention that this is a go. I'll put this in good faith as I don't have access to the book. Ominae (talk) 07:09, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
