“They’ve played on sports teams since they were little girls, never questioning their right to wear the uniform and compete. They dreamed of playing in college, and they know that once they get the opportunity, they don’t want to squander it with a single-mined focus on athletics. They are irritated by ignorant comparisons with male athletes; they bond with their teammates like family, even though they don’t always like them; and they pay attention to what their college experience is all about.
They are female student-athletes in 2008.”
