Progress Faster With A United Team -- w/ Emerging powerhouse, University of Illinois' Head Coach, Tyra Perry

Published on: 27th July, 2020

One superpower I think we have in the sports world is the ability to bring a diverse group of individuals together for a common purpose.

That skill is why I'm proud to be a part of the softball community. We are one of the most inclusive groups I've ever seen, and I hope to continue that trend.

Because if we don't, we could miss out on amazing softball minds like today's guest!

Listen in as she shares her perspective on diversity and unifying a team toward a common goal: being a top 25 team!
