Spirit see Servando Berna for the first time—this is his first year in PRO2 but it seems like he’s worked quite a bit of NCAA woso. Greg Dopka gets Rahsing-Tsars (which could also be a WWE match considering some of the players involved) and Chesky has her first NWSL game in the center since June.

For the WNBPA and the NWSLPA, solidarity is an ethos as well as a strategy. I spoke with leaders from both unions to learn more about the organizations' strong relationship:

The US’s biggest pro women’s sports unions have found strength together

For NWSL and WNBA players’ unions, collective actions have been key to their successes in wholly different sports

They aren’t even writing anything, they say at the bottom they generate this stuff automatically using a template, which implies that Caitlin is the only face that ever covers these “articles”

This is absolutely wild. All 10 starters in the #WNBA Finals are Black women. And you use this photo of 1. A white woman who hasn't played since the All-Star break and 2. A white woman eliminated in the first round. 3. With neither team in the Finals.

Be better, @usatodaysports.usatoday.com #WNBA
