Relive a pioneering chapter of women's basketball history with our Columbus Minks T-shirt, celebrating their 1984 season in the Women's American Basketball Association. The Minks brought professional women's basketball to Capital University's Alumni Gym, representing one of the first attempts to establish a professional women's league after Title IX. Despite featuring talented players and the novelty of being Columbus's first professional women's team, the franchise faced significant challenges. The team, along with the entire WABA, folded after just one season due to financial difficulties and the broader challenges of establishing professional women's basketball in an era before the WNBA.
