description: Many of today's young women went through school after the 1972 passage of Title IX; the same cannot be said of their mothers. This book provides a powerful opportunity to close that gap. YOU GO GIRL! Is a collection of first-person insights, thoughts, and stories from successful women in the world of sports. Athletes, coaches, and sports executives talk about their lives, their dreams, their frustrations, and their disappointments - as well as their victories and passions, practice habits and perspectives. Their stories will inspire, teach, motivate, encourage, and challenge any reader - male or female. Among the women who have contributed their personal anecdotes and insights are Mia Hamm, Gabrielle Reece, Marion Jones, Kerri Strug, Chris Evert, Nancy Lopez, Picabo Street, and many others. "Must reading for young athletes, their parents, coaches, and anyone looking for inspiration from the expanding world of sports." (B-O-T Editorial Review Board)
