This format is perfect for staying current without doom-scrolling the entire internet. The Ursus Oro recruitment storyline is geniusand the fact that both swimming teams swept their invites while Kent gets Cooperstown shows the breadth of Cal athletics. Love theBig C history link too.

One note on that Women's sports medicine data. I was at a local Orthopedic and Sports Medicine clinic a couple months ago. When there I saw a large display talking about ACL injuries in female athletes.

The data indicated women suffer ACL tears at a much higher rate than males in the same sports, and they don't recover from them as well as males either.

Here's what Perplexity says on the topic, for those interested:

Anyway, more research is needed to protect female athletes. Kudos to Cal for raising awareness and looking out for girls and young women who play competitive sports.
