When you watch college sports on TV, the ones that are always showcased are men’s sports. I like watching men’s sports just as much as everyone else does. Men’s sports are the ones who make more money for the colleges and universities, especially football and basketball. They get all of the coverage. Unfortunately, women’s sports do not get as much coverage as men’s sports do.

This is frustrating because I also love watching women’s sports as well. I think they are just as talented and even more talented than the men’s sports. They have to work twice as hard because, well, they are a woman. According to Yahoo Sports, “a 25-year -long study showed that local news outlets spend only 3% of their airtime covering women’s sports, with ESPN allocating a mere 2% of its coverage.” This makes total sense because when I want to watch a Penn State field hockey game I sometimes have to keep flipping through the channels to look for it or I have to watch it on my laptop through a live stream instead.

A solution to this problem is to obviously start showing women’s sports more on TV and give them the coverage they deserve. They are just as hard-working, dedicated, and passionate as the men.
