The University of Idaho offers nearly two dozen recognized club sports teams, but few are as unique as the logger sports team.
At 10 a.m. every Saturday morning, a diverse group of students gets up and meets at the Pitkin Nursery on Highway 8 to practice chopping, ax throw, pole climb and more. The team is a close-knit group, led by Katie Anderson, who is a senior in ecology and conservation biology.
“We have a variety of College of Natural Resources majors, but we also have some agriculture and arts people,” Anderson said.
