Into the Pain Cave with Oksana Masters

Ahead of the Milan-Cortina Paralympics, multi-sport phenom Oksana Masters sat down with producer Alex to discuss how she’s persevered through dozens of injuries and surgeries to become the most decorated Winter Paralympian in U.S. history, her caffeine-fueled goals for life after competition, and the advice she'd give up-and-coming competitors (but never follow herself). Plus, labor divisions expand, a trophy-worthy flick and kick, and a coach we'd never play for.  Follow Oksana on Instagram here Pick up a copy of Oksana’s memoir here Read Ben Pickman’s reporting on the latest in WNBA CBA negotiations here Read more about the dismissal of Dearica Hamby’s lawsuit against the Las Vegas Aces here Check out the Toronto Tempo’s uniforms here Read more about the collapse of Grand Slam Track here Watch Jacqueline Ovalle’s award-winning goal here And watch all 11 nominated goals here The PWHL schedule can be found here  Leave us a voicemail at 872-204-5070 or send us a note at [email protected]  Follow Sarah on social!
