University of Arizona Skydiving Team

[derivative 0]

Hey all,

I'm out here in Tucson at the UofA, and I understand there used to be a university skydiving team. Does anyone know anything about them? What happened to them? I understand that they were still going strong until between 4 and 8 years ago.

I graduated from UofA in 98 and there was no team at that time. I do recall back in the 80s there was a four-way team that went to the collegiate nationals a couple times ... I don't believe they were an officially sponsored (by UofA) team. You might check with the folks at the Marana Dropzone to see if they know anything.

Was that 1898?

Now, now Michael ... you're even older than me, or maybe that should be "more mature," ... naw, that can't right either.
It was back in the days when I was merely a mild-mannered reporter for a metropolitan newspaper.

And I was just a simple minded test jumper in a small desert town. I am way past being "more mature", I have moved on to "more old".
