This Native American Heritage Month, RISE honors the incredible contributions of Indigenous athletes who have shaped sports history while carrying forward their cultural traditions. From Jim Thorpe's legendary athleticism to today's Native champions breaking barriers across every field and court, Indigenous athletes embody resilience, excellence, and the power of representation.
