Nicki Collen Part 1 (of 2)- Head Coach of the WNBA's Atlanta Dream in The Sports Deli

We're honored to be joined in this episode of The Sports Deli by Nicki Collen, Head Coach of The WNBA's Atlanta Dream. In part 1 of this two part series, Nicki reflects upon her days growing up in Bo Ryan country, why she wanted to play for a woman's coach in college, why going to the Final Four as a freshman was not her most memorable moment in college as a student-athlete, what one of her "aha" moments was, why she can't watch "March Madness" just as a fan, and why she loves and considers Michigan State University's Men's Basketball Coach Tom Izzo a mentor.  Remember, your voice matters when fighting systemic racism. Read a  book, acknowledge your white privilege, watch a movie about institutional racism, call your local or state representatives, and/or  have a conversation with someone that doesn't look like you so that we  can change the economic, educational, police, housing, and prison narratives that currently need to be changed in this country.
