In February, Gopher Athletics celebrated Pride Night at the women's basketball game against Michigan. In a special recognition, student-athletes in the Gopher Advocates and Allies group took to the court to spread their message of inclusiveness. During a break in the game, the group was honored on the court and had a chance to toss special Minnesota Pride themed shirts to the crowd.

The student-athletes of Gopher Advocates and Allies partnered with staff from the Center for Queer and Translife on campus to pass out posters and buttons in support of Pride Night.
