  • The Tennessee State Tigerbelles
    4 The Tennessee State Tigerbelles Cold Warriors of the Track Carroll Van West In the lore of Tennessee sports history, few names are more evocative and lionized than the Tennessee State Tigerbelles, a group of women sprinters who dominated track and field events in the nation and world from the mid-1950s to mid-1980s.1 Scholarly interest in the impact of the Tigerbelles has multiplied in the twenty-first century, with dissertations and books addressing how these women track and field stars shaped mid-twentieth-century images of African American women, women involved in sports in general, and issues of civil rights and international affairs.2 The story of the Tigerbelles and their significance to American sport and cul- ture must center on the great talent and dedication to excellence of these young women. But as media coverage of their athletic exploits intensified from the early 1950s to the 1960s, the Tigerbelles were swept up in American preoccupation with the role of women in contemporary sport, the impact of race in American sport, and the role that amateur athletes could play as pawns in the propaganda postur- ings of the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War. Track and field at Tennessee Agricultural and Industrial State College (renamed in 1968 as Tennessee State University) began in the aftermath of Jessie Owens’s success at the 1936 Olympics. The college’s first women’s track team formed in 1943 under the direction of Jessie Abbott, succeeded by Lula Bartley in 1945. Abbott brought with him a commitment to excellence gained at Tuskegee Institute, home to the first nationally dominant African American track and field program.

By the time she was 14, she had won the district championship in the 50-, 75-, and 100-meter dashes held in Fort Valley, Georgia.3 She played basketball (her favorite sport) for the Twin City High School team, as a guard and later, team captain.4 However, Robert Jackson Sr., a physical education teacher, noticed Martha's natural running ability and encouraged her to concentrate on track.5 By the end of Pennyman’s freshman year, she had competed in the Tuskegee Relays where she finished third in the 100- meter.6 It was there she caught the attention of Edward Temple, the acclaimed track coach of the Tennessee State University Tigerbelles, and he invited her to participate
