Women have always belonged in sports. Between the rise in women’s sports and women in sports media, the industry is becoming more inclusive and accepting. The Association for Women in Sports Media champions this mission, with a dedication to providing young women the resources and networks necessary to make an impact in the industry. There are currently 17 chapters located on college campuses across the US, and Marquette provides a sound foundation to be the home of a new one.
Coverage of women’s sports has been consistently on the rise, as women’s sports itself has been gaining traction.
