“She Will,” a series of athletic events promoted by the Women’s Center and the athletics department, encourages attendees to learn about the strides women make in sports.
The series will give the public a chance to meet female athletes.
The first event of “She Will” was the women’s soccer game on Sept. 7.
Cassie Pegg-Kirby, interim director of the Women’s Center, described what she hopes the “She Will” events will accomplish.
“We’re not talking about women’s athletics taking away from what men’s athletics have, but unfortunately, women’s athletics don’t have the same attendance, celebration and support in most places,” Pegg-Kirby said.
