Woody Strode, a towering figure in the world of sports, left an indelible mark on both college and professional football. As a standout athlete at the University of Minnesota, Strode's exceptional talent and physical prowess earned him a place in the school's Hall of Fame. His contributions extended beyond the gridiron, as he also excelled in track and field.

Strode's journey into professional football was groundbreaking. Drafted by the Los Angeles Rams in 1951, he became one of the first African American players to break the color barrier in the NFL. Facing prejudice and discrimination, Strode persevered and demonstrated his exceptional abilities on the field. His strength, speed, and versatility made him a formidable opponent, earning him the respect of teammates and opponents alike.


Beyond his football accomplishments, Strode's impact extended into the realm of acting. His imposing physique and commanding presence led to roles in numerous films, including the iconic "Spartacus." Strode's career served as an inspiration to countless athletes and individuals, demonstrating that talent and determination can overcome adversity.

He went on with K. Washington to break racial barriers in the NFL as a member of the LA Rams, and later the CFL's Calgary Stampeders. After football he became a Hollywood and actor and can be found in such classics as the Posse, Cotton Club, Vigilante, and Scream.
