Episode: Oregon wrestler Asia DeWeese helped pave the way for women in wrestling
Description: Fifty-one years ago this summer, Title IX was signed into law. Its most visible achievement has been the inclusion of women in interscholastic sports. Earlier this year, Oregon officially sanctioned girls wrestling at the high school level. Asia DeWeese is one of the athletes who helped to usher in that change. She competed in Oregon as a wrestler in the 1980s.
