Jenny Cavnar makes National League history in the radio booth

What began as a high school dream became a groundbreaking reality on July 2, 2015, when Jenny Cavnar stepped into the 850 KOA booth, and in the process became the first woman to ever broadcast a National League game live on the radio.

The significance of her accomplishment should not be understated. And yet, Cavnar's dream was far simpler than images of shattered glass ceilings. Her aspirations are no different than yours or mine.

"I'm not trying to be a pioneer," Cavnar said. But a pioneer she is, whether intended or not.

"The fact that [being the first woman on the radio] is a part of this is humbling," she said.
