The four top college women's basketball teams will face off in Minneapolis this weekend in the NCAA Women's Final Four tournament. Last year, the NCAA came under fire for gender disparities in how its men's and women's tournaments were run. In response, the NCAA commissioned a report on its gender inequities. The report, released in August 2021, found that the NCAA has prioritized men's basketball over women's teams, and outlined a number of suggestions to address the disparities.  This year is the first time that the Women's Final Four is branded as March Madness alongside the men's tournament. And basketball fans and athletes hope to see increased resources, branding and attention for the women's tournament this weekend.  MPR News host Angela Davis on Friday talked with a coach for the University of Minnesota's women's basketball team and an expert on women in sports about the Final Four Tournament and gender disparities.  Guests:  Nicole LaVoi is the director of the Tucker Center for Research on Girls and Women in Sport at the University of Minnesota. Carly Thibault-DuDonis is the associate head coach for the University of Minnesota's women's basketball team

On this week's episode, Nicole talks to some #disruptHERS colleagues — Drs. Katie Lebel, Nancy Lough, and Ann Pegoraro — about recent disruptions in women's sport, which continue to make headlines. They begin with the recent situation surrounding Chinese tennis player Peng Shuai, 35, a three-time Olympian, who has been missing since November 2, when she used social media to accuse Zhang Gaoli, 75, a former vice premier of China, of sexually assaulting her at his home three years ago. The IOC President Thomas Bach held a video call with Peng, which was unconvincing to experts. The many reported incidents of abuse and harassment by coaches in the National Women's Soccer League is also discussed. They conclude with why women's sports needs men as allies to oust offenders and why leadership in sport needs women to move the needle.Host: Dr. Nicole LaVoiRecorded: November 22, 2021For more information, links and resources and hundreds more conversations from the world of women's sport including articles, blogs, videos and podcasts visit wispsports.com.

Top-ranked tennis player Naomi Osaka's decision to pull out of the French Open after being fined for saying she would not appear at mandatory press conferences is bringing renewed attention to the mental health struggles of athletes.  The 23-year-old champion shared publicly that she has experienced depression and anxiety since 2018 when she won her first of four consecutive Grand Slam singles titles at the U.S. Open. She shared that she feels “waves of anxiety” before press conferences. Osaka's bold step prompted debates on social media and elsewhere about expectations placed on athletes, especially women and athletes of color. Her decision also raises questions about whether and when talking to the press should be seen as an essential part of an athlete's job. Host Angela Davis talks to a journalist, a sports psychologist and a former collegiate tennis coach about pressures faced by athletes and how to better support their mental health.  Guests: Myron Medcalf is a Sunday metro columnist for the Star Tribune and a senior college basketball reporter and radio host with ESPN. Nicole LaVoi is director of the Tucker Center for Research on Girls and Women in Sport at the University of Minnesota. She has researched women in sports and media coverage of women athletes. She also played college tennis and coached tennis.  Ashley Zapata is a sports psychologist at Premier Sport Psychology in Edina, Minn. and works with both college and professional athletes.

Take a look at pictures of the coaches in your athletics program. How many men do you see? How many women? How many people of color? Have you ever asked your athletics director how he/she works to make the staffs more reflective of the athletes in the program? We're joined by a researcher who thinks deeply about this issue, with a particular emphasis on recruiting and retaining women in college coaching. I’m joined by Dr. Nicole LaVoi. Nicole is the Director of the Tucker Center for Research on Girls & Women in Sport and a Senior Lecturer in the School of Kinesiology at the University of Minnesota, and, in a previous life, a head women’s tennis coach and a member of a Division III NCAA Tennis team championship. She earned both her master’s and PhD from Minnesota, so that makes her a “double Gopher”. Nicole also serves on the Board of Directors for WeCOACH, espnW (college committee), and the Sports Advisory Network for the Women’s Sport Foundation. Her seminal research includes the annual Women in College Coaching Report Card™ which is aimed at retaining and increasing the number of women in the coaching profession. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/karen-weaver/message

On this episode, Dr. Nicole LaVoi talks to an impressive group of women, the summer 'Tucker Team', which consists of the Summer Gender Equity Interns: Sam Benzig, Cecelia Kaufmann, Paige Richmond, Greta Sirek and The Pam Borton Fellow for the Promotion of Girls and Women in Sport Leadership, Courtney Boucher. They discuss the projects they have been working on this summer, what they have learned, and advice they give to future interns. "I want to say that our internship program is one of my favorite initiatives of the Tucker Center as it fulfills our mission of making a difference in lives of girls and women in sport through education, outreach, and research. I learn so much from them and it energizes my work, and I am grateful we all have had this opportunity for a virtual internship. I felt strongly the show must go on, so we pivoted to an online internship, and I have to say while it's not as good as in person, it's been great," said Nicole.   For more information, links and resources plus conversations from the world of women’s sport including articles, blogs, videos and podcasts visit wispsports.com.
