3 Cocktails In

Apr 18 2024 • 42 mins

Hey there! Still buzzing from the electrifying atmosphere of the women's final four basketball tournament? Us too! It's been incredible to see how much women's basketball has grown, hasn't it? From more people tuning in than ever before to the powerful legacy of Title IX, there's so much to talk about.

Let's dive into how staying in college longer builds such a strong bond between fans and players, especially compared to the quick turnover in men's basketball. And can we just take a moment to appreciate our local teams and the way they bring communities together? Players like Caitlin Clark are real game-changers, bridging gaps and uniting fans like never before. Okay, maybe CC united Hawkeye & Cyclone fans like never before.

In this episode, we're chatting about the evolution of the world of women's sports. It's all about mentorship, rivalry, and the incredible journey these athletes take. We're seeing a shift in sports commentary too, with more women voices stepping up and shining a light on deserving athletes.

We're also taking a closer look at the changing roles of women in sports media and coaching. Hats off to the trailblazers who've paved the way, and let's make sure there's always room for more women at the commentary table. Coaching isn't easy, especially for women facing unique hurdles, but they're breaking barriers every day.

So, here's to the athletes gearing up for the next season – may their hard work and dedication continue to inspire us all. Cheers to the sweat, the tears, and the bright future of women's sports!
