We're simply noting a fact - making an observation. In fact, it's an observation we think is pretty cool. When people think of sports reporters, they might think of men with hairpieces and fetishes for biting. We have none of that at The DePauw. We all know that girls can play sports.
Few people remain ignorant of the U.S. women's soccer team's victory in the World Cup championship.
We were curled up into tense little bunches in front of the TV until Brandi Chastain scored the winning penalty kick. And then we leapt to our feet, screaming the whole way. Not that it was a long way to go, but we were yelling nonetheless. Suddenly, it was no longer a question that women's sports deserved front-page ink. And we're just the girls to write it.
