Raiders celebrate NGWSD; create Athletics Women's Fund

On National Girls & Women in Sports Day (NGWSD), Wright State University Athletics is proud to celebrate the achievements of girls and women in athletics. Every day, our female student-athletes utilize the power of practice, preparation and competition to grow personally and professionally.

Our women's programs and female student-athletes are no strangers to success. Since 2018, Wright State volleyball and women's basketball have combined for five NCAA tournament appearances, with each winning a game in their respective tournaments, while volleyball earned the first NCAA at-large bid in Wright State history. Raider track & field has seen Haley Brumfield qualify for the NCAA East Preliminary Meet as an individual, while Shelby Nolan earned the 2021 Alfreeda Goff Outdoor Athlete of the Year. Abigail Halsey captured the 2021 Horizon League cross country title as well.

Wright State women's soccer has seen Aaliyah Patten (2018) and Marcella Sizer (2022) capture Horizon League Player of the Year honors, while bowling has already captured a pair of tournament wins as part of their inaugural season this year.

Our women's programs and student-athletes have done all this while achieving at record levels in the classroom, with all-time highs in GPA, Graduation Success Rate (GSR), and Academic Progress Rate (APR).

Please consider contributing to the Athletics Women's Fund in honor of our female student-athletes' accomplishments and to position Wright State for even greater success in women's athletics in the years ahead. Your donation will directly impact the academic and athletic experience of current and future Raider student-athletes. Please visit the NGWSD Campaign Page to make your gift.
