Southwest Collection's Texas Tech Athletics Archive

Since Texas Tech University’s inception, sports have always played a huge role in the history and memories of time spent at Texas Tech University. The games. The camaraderie. The excitement. Thanks to the University Archives, all those memories are preserved thoroughly in the University Libraries Southwest Collections/Special Libraries.

The most comprehensive collection of Texas Tech Athletics history is found within the pages of game programs and media guides. Dating back to 1925, the Texas Tech University Archives has copies of home programs and media guides for most Red Raider and Lady Raider teams since each sport’s inception at the university.

However, most of this history remains locked away from public view due to vital, but unavailable, resources to scan, preserve; and publicize these materials. Publicizing and sharing Texas Tech’s bold past requires generous philanthropic support.

We invite you to join us in preserving the first century of Texas Tech and make it accessible for generations to come!
