Answer 2

The correct answer is "It increased college athletic opportunities for women."

The introduction of equal educational benefits for both genders under the Education Amendments passed by the Congress in 1972 laid path to the creation of numerous institutions that were the product of the organization of female students in order to get the best out of this law. With the increase in female students, female sports associations were created and subsequently sporting events between schools were organized. This led to the creation of female sporting associations.
