Amazon Soccer 1978. ©Meadow Muska. Some of these women created the first Minnesota women's soccer league. They made a difference.
The Minnesota Women's Soccer League, which included eight teams such as the University of MN, was started in the mid-70s with help from some of the women in Amazon Soccer shown in this photo. I graduated from Ramsey/Roseville High School in 1970, before Title IX. "The boys needed it" was the excuse to withhold all sports from females, except for cheerleading. The women in this photo made a difference for women to play sports. I was in a tree, photographing, and played as a full back.
