Legends are made during legendary times. And Ann Schatz has worked through a few. From the Tonya Harding scandal through Sabrina Ionescu's greatness, the Thorns' original play-by-play voice has touched on some of the biggest (and strangest) stories in Oregon sports.
It's experience that gives her a unique perspective on what we're going through now. Checking in with Breaking Lines from her COVID-19 isolation, Schatz describes why, amid all the surreal moments she's seen, our current is incomparable.
Schatz also goes through her best Thorns memory, the team's impact on sports in Oregon, and, just under one week removed from the latest WNBA Draft, her view from courtside of the era in the history of Oregon Ducks women's basketball.
