Contrary to rumors on campus and in the local press, Cynthia Pemberton did not set out in 1992 to destroy the long-honored football team of Linfield College, a small liberal arts school in Oregon. Men’s teams were outfitted at the college’s expense, but Pemberton began noticing that the women often had to buy their own equipment and shape their practice and facility use schedules around the men’s sports.

- "Contrary to rumors on campus and in the local press, Cynthia Pemberton did not set out in 1992 to destroy the long-honored football team of Linfield College, a small liberal arts school in Oregon. Instead, the Assistant Athletic Director for Women’s Sports wanted to make athletic opportunities equally available to both women and men - simply to make the college comply with the law. Her six-year crusade for full implementation of Title IX made headlines across the nation. Here is Pemberton’s autobiographical account of what would become the ordeal of her life."–BOOK JACKET
