That is pretty unheard of and I think it speaks volumes. I believe it is so important to constantly be around women supporting women and to feel proud of who we are!

However, women in sports broadcasting still fall short in the "benefit of the doubt" department compared to our male counterparts.If a man makes a mistake on air, be it an incorrect stat or name pronunciation, it's chalked up as just that: a mistake.When a woman makes a similar mistake, it's typically viewed in a much harsher light of her being unqualified, unprepared, or uninformed.That stigma still lingers in sports journalism, but I try to combat it every day by showing up as a woman in sports, and showing up prepared, genuine and enthused in my work.Find Lauren on Facebook and Twitter!A Message from Christina Evans:"When you learn, teach, when you get, give."- Maya Angelou. This is a quote by Dr. Maya Angelou is one of my favorite quotes of all time. Her words are a gentle reminder of how we as women can make a larger impact in our communities and inspire those around us each and every day. As a woman in the news industry, I have been blessed to have fantastic female mentors who pour their advice, kindness, and love into me so that I can make a difference in this world. As I continue to grow, I follow in their footsteps by reaching back and giving to those eager young women embarking on their personal journeys,’ and I have to say, this has been the greatest joy in my career. We do not all have to be rocket scientists, movie stars, or politicians to make a difference. If you share any piece of knowledge you or encouragement you can help out a woman in need and make a difference this International Women’s Day.Find Christina on Facebook and Twitter!A Message from Christine Cruz:It’s not a specific job or role that defines us as women, it’s our ability to take on so many, and somehow do them all well. When you’re a working mom, there are times when you feel so defeated. I remember how heartbroken I was every time I missed the elementary school Mother’s Day breakfast at school for my kids. Being in news, meant there were no days off during May sweeps, and so every year it was that same feeling of letting my kids down. But here’s the flip side:Without even realizing it, I was teaching my kids about work/life balance— The underlying lesson that responsibilities often prevent us from being where we’d like to be, because of where we must be. Today, both of my kids are grown. My son is 24 and my daughter is 22. They get it. All of it. They felt loved back then. They feel loved now. So somehow, this woman, pulled it off, thanks to the generation of women before me, including my amazing mom, who showed me, how it’s done.Find Christine on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram!
