The football program's first season took place in 1915, and has fielded a team each year since with the exception of 1918 during World War I and from 1943 to 1945 during World War II, when the campus, then known as the University Farm, was shut down. The team was known as the Cal Aggies or California Aggies from 1922 to 1958 when UC Davis was called the Northern Branch of the College of Agriculture.UC Davis competed as a member of the NCAA College Division through 1972; from 1973 to 2003, the Aggies competed as an NCAA Division II program. In 2004, UC Davis promoted its football program to the Division I FCS (then I-AA) level and joined the Great West Conference (then known as the Great West Football Conference) after one season as an independent team with exploratory status. After their provisional seasons and the construction of a new stadium, UC Davis became a full member of Division I in 2007 and eligible for the postseason.Throughout its history, the football program won 31 conference championships. Between 1929 and 1992, the Aggies captured 27 outright or shared Northern California Athletic Conference championships, including 20 in a row from 1971 to 1990, an American West Conference title in 1993 (co-champion), and GWFC/GWC championships in 2005 (co-champ) and 2009.The Aggies won their first conference title as a Division I program in 2018 as one of the Big Sky Conference's three regular-season champions.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:37 UTC on Tuesday, 13 May 2025.For the full current version of the article, see UC Davis Aggies football on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Kendra.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for June 5th           Publish Date:  June 5th           From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Wednesday, June 5th and Happy 52nd Birthday to actor Mark Walhberg. ***06.05.24 – BIRTHDAY – MARK WAHLBERG*** I'm Bruce Jenkins and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Ex-Cop Accused of Kidnapping and Murdering 16-year-old Girl Heads to Trial Sex Trafficking Pipeline Runs Through Gwinnett Sex Trafficking Survivors Target Hotels Through Lawsuits Plus, my conversation with Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on strawberries. All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: MOG   STORY 1: Ex-Cop Accused of Kidnapping and Murdering 16-year-old Girl Heads to Trial Former Doraville police officer Miles Bryant is on trial for the kidnapping and murder of 16-year-old Susana Morales in July 2022. Morales disappeared while walking home, and her remains were found months later. Bryant is charged with malice and felony murder, kidnapping, attempted rape, and filing a false report. He declined a guilty plea and opted for a jury trial. Jury selection faced issues after a potential juror shared negative information about Bryant. Initial charges against Bryant for concealing Morales' death and filing a false report were upgraded to include kidnapping and murder. The Doraville Police Department fired Bryant following the charges. STORY 2: HIDDEN VICTIMS: Sex Trafficking Pipeline Runs Through Gwinnett In October 2019, A.L., a 26-year-old woman, escaped from Earnest Bernard Reed, a self-proclaimed pimp, after being trafficked and abused for over two years. Reed, who went by "Sway Huncho," forced her into sex work, subjected her to beatings, and deprived her of basic needs. She managed to call 911 from a hotel when Reed left her alone, leading to his arrest and subsequent 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking. Her case highlights the pervasive issue of sex trafficking in Georgia, affecting people in various settings, including hotels and private homes, with a high incidence in areas like Gwinnett County. STORY 3: Sex Trafficking Survivors Target Hotels Through Lawsuits Survivors of sex trafficking have been suing hotels for allowing their exploitation. Plaintiffs claim hotels ignored obvious signs of trafficking, like high visitor rates and excessive condom use, and sometimes even provided drug paraphernalia. Lawyers Jonathan Tonge and Pat McDonough, specializing in such cases, aim to make ignoring trafficking unprofitable for hotels. They've settled over 50 cases, with 20 ongoing. Legislative changes, like improved "rape shield" laws and a "lookback" period for civil suits, could help survivors. Post-settlement, attorneys like Cheryl Richardson manage survivors' finances to protect them from exploitation and ensure long-term stability.     We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

We'll be right back Break 2: TOM WAGES   STORY 4: HIDDEN VICTIMS: The Way Out: How Sex Trafficking Victims Escape and Survive A.L., a 31-year-old sex trafficking survivor, was rescued in 2019 from an Atlanta hotel. For over two years, she was exploited and beaten by Earnest Reed, who profited from her suffering. Reed lured her in with a romantic relationship, then controlled her through violence and manipulation. Police rescued her from a Days Inn after she called 911, escaping while Reed was away. Since then, A.L. has rebuilt her life, found employment, and is raising her son. She lives in another state, free from drugs, and is considering studying criminal justice. Her story underscores the ongoing efforts and challenges in combating sex trafficking and supporting survivors. STORY 5: Former Brookwood Swimmer, SwimAtlanta Coach to Compete on ‘The Bachelorette' Thomas Nguyen, a 31-year-old from Gwinnett and Brookwood High grad, is one of 25 men competing on the 21st season of "The Bachelorette," starring Jenn Tran.

After another unpredictable Iowa high school boys' state wrestling tournament, the Pinning Combination with The Gazette's K.J. Pilcher and Hall of Fame coach Dick Briggs is here to break down all the top storylines.The podcast talks all things wrestling in Iowa, beginning with the Hawkeyes' win over Wisconsin and previewing Sunday's dual against Oklahoma State and the approaching postseason. Plus, a big weekend ahead for Iowa State and Northern Iowa and updates from the NAIA and NCAA Division II and Division III levels.

"I just felt like I just needed to get to the finish line, touch the finish line, and then celebrate. I don't feel like it is real yet. I don't know that it will until I'm back home and into my routine. But I keep getting little reminders that I am now going to be on an Olympic team, and I almost break down in tears every time." An average high school runner, Minnesota Distance Elite's Dakotah Lindwurm walked onto the team at Northern State University, but wound up a two-time NCAA Division II. She similarly entered the world of post-collegiate running as an unheralded but steady performer. But she ramped up to the marathon distance early, raced it often, and steadily chipped away at it, even winning the Grandma's Marathon a couple of times.  Still, despite boasting a well-filled-out resume, she seemed like a longshot to make an Olympic team. Too many big names were slotted ahead of her with PRs significantly faster. That all changed on Saturday when Lindwurm outlasted all but two members of one of the best fields ever assembled at an Olympic Trials marathon. Her story is sure to inspire, and her progression is one that I know high school coaches nationwide are sharing with their non-state-champion athletes this week.  Dakotah was generous enough to chat with Kyle Merber over the phone following her qualification for this week's edition of The Lap Count.
