Through tragedy and triumph, cultural shifts and societal changes, sports have always stood as a response to the world at large. On, On Buffaloes shows how the West Texas A&M Athletics microcosm has reflected the changes in national sports from the integration of African Americans to adding women’s events.  Hands-on science and math activities add perspective to the skills and athletic ability needed for different sports.
