On March 18, an oft-injured Oregon center walked toward a basketball court in downtown San Antonio. Very few casual sports fans knew Sedona Prince’s name at the time. Prince, though, knew something wasn’t right.
She’d heard about the sprawling weight rooms that men’s college basketball teams were using in Indianapolis.
She looked to the side of her practice court, and saw a solitary rack of light dumbbells, and a couple folding tables, and … emptiness.
Two weeks later, the most powerful people in college athletics are still talking about what Prince saw — and about other, broader, deeper inequities between women’s and men’s sports.
