Oakland Tech’s own athletic director, Dr. Alexis Gray-Lawson — who led Tech’s girls basketball team to its first two state championships in ‘04 and ‘05 and later played in the WNBA — has become a front woman for the movement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, the reality is that women’s and girl’s sports still don’t garner the respect or media coverage they deserve. Among U.S. sports fans, 79% say they don’t actively follow women’s sports, according to a recent study. It’s why Braggs is passionate about putting out the call to witness this girls varsity team in action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Come see these girls. Just come see them,” Braggs encouraged. “On our leisure, let’s not go to the hookah lounge. Let’s be like ‘Aye, let’s catch a game at Oakland Tech because I heard they were good.’ You know what I mean? Even just showing up in whatever school — if that’s Fremont [High School] or Oakland High.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Co-team captain Erin Sellers said she’s excited to have the support and appreciation of fans — from Steph Curry to classmates — even though it brings added pressure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we’re doing a pretty good job of carrying it,” she said. “The only thing that’s left is to win the championship this year. So that’s what we tryin’ to do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First stop: the Oakland Athletic League playoffs, which tip off the week of Feb. 20.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Antigen testing for the women versus PCR [polymerase chain reaction] testing for the men. PCR testing is the gold standard in testing. Just the promotion of the tournament, the fact that the men’s tournament gets just so many more resources that go towards the production of the men’s tournament versus the women’s tournament, signage, making the tournament feel like a big-time event. The men will have a big concert, whereas the women don’t have that entertainment. It’s something that’s lacking in the women’s tournament right now and hopefully will be changed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What kind of impact could these findings have in changing the culture of college sports?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The perception of women’s basketball, by the NCAA and promoted by the NCAA, was that women’s basketball was a loser financially. But in fact, through top media consultants, women’s basketball could be a major contributor to the NCAA’s and colleges’ athletic departments’ coffers.\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>What are you seeing in the way women’s and men’s teams are treated on the financial side?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label ='Related Coverage' tag='olympics']So much of the content we see on television is not just dictated by viewership but companies willing to sponsor women’s sports. And we really need corporate sponsorship to step up and value women’s sports in the same way that they value men’s sports. And we need sponsorship, not just for television but other platforms and support of the tournament. I think that corporate America understands that women spend a lot of money and that there are so many athletes, so many female athletes, so hopefully, those corporate sponsors will get on board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What can universities do to make a change?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, I think universities can help promote women’s sports. They can make sure that on their campus, women are treated fairly and equitably. Let me be really clear, the men’s tournament is a great tournament and it is the cash cow right now of universities in the NCAA. Football is totally separate but the NCAA men’s basketball does support a lot of their programs. But women’s basketball and other sports can be revenue sources as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post includes reporting by NPR’s Josie Fischels.\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

And we really need corporate sponsorship to step up and value women’s sports in the same way that they value men’s sports. And we need sponsorship, not just for television but other platforms and support of the tournament. I think that corporate America understands that women spend a lot of money and that there are so many athletes, so many female athletes, so hopefully, those corporate sponsors will get on board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What can universities do to make a change?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, I think universities can help promote women’s sports. They can make sure that on their campus, women are treated fairly and equitably. Let me be really clear, the men’s tournament is a great tournament and it is the cash cow right now of universities in the NCAA. Football is totally separate but the NCAA men’s basketball does support a lot of their programs. But women’s basketball and other sports can be revenue sources as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post includes reporting by NPR’s Josie Fischels.\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
