When the Tyee Club grows, the promise and capability of our student-athletes grow. Husky Athletics relies on Tyee Club member support to provide funding for scholarships, which allow our student-athletes to continue thriving as members of the Husky academic and athletic community. The cost of funding annual UW athletic scholarships has risen to over $9 million. Keeping pace with the increasing scholarship support needed is critical to remaining competitive on a national level.
WE ARE ATHLETIC CHAMPIONS
In 2010 Husky Athletics achieved on the field. 650 student-athletes competed in 21 sports programs with Pac-10 Team Championships in Women's Cross Country, Men's Basketball, Men's Golf, Softball, and Men's Crew.
WE ARE COMMITTED TO THE SCHOLARSHIP OF STUDENT-ATHLETES
Student-athletes are supported with a 14-person academic services staff and 85 tutors that evaluate the needs of the individual while targeting and developing resources for the student-athlete's university success.
