"Tensions ran high at a 1925 meeting of Iowa superintendents during the Iowa State Teachers’ Convention at Central Presbyterian Church in Des Moines. The discussion focused on girls’ high school athletics. The National Federation of High School Activities Associations (NFHS), of which the Iowa High School Athletic Association was a member, had declared basketball too strenuous for high school girls to participate and banned all girls high school sports."

"The decree angered many of the small school superintendents at the meeting whose schools had girls’ basketball programs. Those superintendents, led by Mystic superintendent and girls’ basketball coach John W. Agans, huddled in a corner of the church basement. It was Agans who made the famous proclamation “Gentlemen, if you attempt to do away with girls’ basketball in Iowa, you’ll be standing in the center of the track when the train runs over you.”"

"Agans and 25 other superintendents developed a new organization that would sanction girls basketball. The organization would be formally named the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union in 1927."

"100 years later and the IGHSAU remains the only activity association in the United States solely dedicated to overseeing girls’ interscholastic activities. The IGHSAU is proud to celebrate a century of honoring the Iowa Girl."
