Martina Navratilova, a true tennis icon, cuts through the noise with clear truth. Including biological males in women’s teams is not inclusive for the female athlete who loses her spot as a result.
Biological realities of strength, speed, and power create inherent advantages for males that cannot be wished away. This erodes the fair playing field women have long fought to establish.
Protecting sex-based categories in sports ensures women retain their opportunities and achievements. Listening to experienced athletes like Navratilova upholds genuine fairness and respect for female competitors.
Besides setting a @NCAADIII record, this is now the 3rd longest winning streak in #NCAAWBB history.
Up next, @UConnWBB 90 wins from 2008-11 and 111 from 2014-17
@NYUAthletics is also looking to be the first #NCAAWBB team to win 3 consecutive undefeated national championships.
82 straight. HISTORY MADE!
Congrats to @nyuwomenshoops head coach @CoachMegBarber on setting a new NCAA Division III women’s basketball record for consecutive wins!
#WBCA | @NCAADIII
Happy #SuperBowl Sunday - but before we get to kickoff a HUGE congratulations to the New York University women's basketball team, undefeated and top-ranked, who just set the NCAA Division III record with its 82nd consecutive win, defeating @CarnegieMellon today 69-58
It doesn't matter what kind of competition you're talking about, what Head Coach Meg Barber and her @nyuwomenshoops just accomplished is extraordinary
The Violets broke the previous record set by fellow University Athletic Association member Washington University in St. Louis, who won 81 straight from 1998-2001
@UConnWBB currently holds the all-time women's college basketball winning streak record with 111 consecutive victories, achieved between 2014 and 2017. UConn also holds the second-longest streak of 90 games (2008–2010)
