She's Got Game #235
Manage episode 521795657 series 1518397
Michaela and Vanessa speak with the makers of Pink Light – director Harrison Browne and executive director Sean Addis – a Canadian short fiction film that explores identity, transition and the intersection of sport and gender. The film’s director, Harrison, is a former athlete who came out as pro hockey’s first-ever openly transgender player. For the second time in three years – and second time in franchise history – Gotham FC wins the NWSL championship – as the no. 8 seed… and Michaela called it! The WNBA draft lottery is in the books and the Dallas Wings get the no. 1 pick for the second-straight year. Will Dallas draft Azzi Fudd to play alongside superstar Paige Bueckers? The new PWHL season is underway. Sarah Nurse scores the first-ever goal in Vancouver Goldeneyes history in a win over Seattle, their expansion cousins, but then gets hurt and misses Vancouver’s second game, a 5-1 loss in Ottawa. Montreal’s Marie-Philip Poulin becomes the first PWHL player to reach 50 points. Penny Oleksiak accepts her two-year ban from competitive swimming for skipping out on performance-enhancing drug tests.
