WHAT IS A POMEROY, ANYWAY? Our Pomeroys are named for Sister Mary Joseph Pomeroy, a Sister of Providence who advocated for athletics and physical fitness. She was a member of the basketball team that played the FIRST recorded women’s intercollegiate basketball game in Indiana history when the team defeated Indiana Normal College (Today’s Indiana State University) in 1920. Woods athletics, led by Sister Pomeroy, trailblazed a path for many basketball players to follow. To us, being a Pomeroy represents a spirit of excellence and sportsmanship.
