What Our Champions Say

"Sexism has been gravity for women's sports, holding us back. We still have so much work to do. It'll take people - all of us - saying, hey, we're going to defy gravity, so let's do it."

"You cannot be what you cannot see. Having women be coaches and having young athletes see these women as role models and exemplars of what could be, what can be, ultimately will be."
