Black Women Rising in NCAA Ranks | The Crusader Newspaper Group

By Patrice Nkrumah The number of African-American women filling important positions in the sports landscape has been increasing in the past few years. Former Chicago Sky player Swin Cash is now the vice-president of basketball operations for the New Orleans Pelicans. In February, Ohio native Blake Bolden became a pro scout for the NHL’s Los Angeles Kings, becoming the first woman of any race to be employed in that capacity. Lindsey Harding is an assistant coach with the Philadelphia 76’ers. Black women are also making inroads in the college ranks as well. In May, Vanderbilt University in Nashville made headlines when they named Candice Storey Lee their athletic director, making her the first African American to lead a Power Five conference’s athletic program. Lee’s selection shows just how far Black women have come in sports administration and how the opportunities are there for those who are prepared.
