Alice Coachman (November 9, 1923 – July 14, 2014), a track and field star, made history at the 1948 Olympic Games in London becoming the first black woman to win an Olympic medal.

Coachman was born and raised in the heart of the segregated south in Albany, Georgia where she was often denied the opportunity to train and compete in organized sports. Instead, she trained on her own, running barefoot in the fields and on dirt roads using old equipment to create hurdles to improve her high jump. After demonstrating her skills on the track at Madison High School, Tuskegee Institute offered 16-year-old Coachman a scholarship to attend its high school in 1939. She competed on and against all-black teams throughout the segregated south.

Over the next several years, Coachman dominated Amateur Athlete Union (AAU) competitions. By 1946, the same year she enrolled at Albany State College, she amassed ten consecutive national titles in the high jump. Coachman also won the 50-meter outdoor title every year from 1943 to 1947 and held a total of 25 national titles.

While at peak athletic form, World War II forced the cancellation of the Olympic Games in both 1940 and 1944.

In 1948, Coachman was finally able to show the world her talent in London as a member of the Olympic team. She leapt to a record-breaking height of 5 feet, 6 1/8 inches in the high jump to become the first black woman to win an Olympic gold medal.

Following the Olympic Games, Coachman returned to a segregated south. At an event in her honor, blacks and whites were seated separately. The mayor sat on the stage with her, but would not shake her hand.

Coachman was a pioneer and paved the way for female African-American Olympic track stars like Wilma Rudolph, Florence Griffith Joyner and Jackie Joyner-Kersee. “If I had gone to the Games and failed, there wouldn’t be anyone to follow in my footsteps,” she said. “It encouraged the rest of the women to work harder and fight harder.”

Alice Coachman died at the age of 90.

This super soft t-shirt is made from 100% combed and ring-spun cotton.

Good quality
Color: Crisp White, Size: Medium
Fit is great, feels like a durable material. Generally a very nice shirt! Bought this for a 5’ 10” male who is 150lbs. Medium was just right, with a little bit of breathing room.

Good for an emergency only
Color: Crisp White, Size: X-Large
Shirts are good overall, but the material is too light ... if you are hairy or have dark skin, you need an undershirt; otherwise, it looks like the shirt is dirty.

Great shirt for Price
Color: White, Size: Large
Seem to fit true to size and long enough. I cannot stand dress shirts that are too short on the sides and become untucked. I am also getting these embroidered with a company logo to turn into work shirts. I like the oxford feel, buttons are tight fit, arm length is hair long for me (5'11") - but for the fit they fine. I purchased four of these, all were consistent with one another, no surprises.

Might buy a couple more.
Color: Demin Blue, Size: Large
In the process of losing weight and needed a nice looking shirt for work without spending a lot of money on something that will only fit for a few months. This did the trick! Fits well, looks nice, and at a great price.
