In January 2020, Washington Athletics was gearing up for a fabulous spring sports season. Then, COVID-19 hit. We moved quickly to prioritize the safety of our student-athletes, coaches and staff. Soon after, we started crunching numbers. The outlook was bleak. The projected loss of revenue not only threatened immediate essential services to student-athletes; it portended red ink for years to come.
Then, Husky Nation stepped up. Thanks to you, student-athletes thrived in the classroom and in competition. On these two pages, we share with you the amazing extent of your generosity and the impact you made by donating to our Huskies All In and One Team initiatives.
