"Stay Strong, Play On": Celebrating National Girls and Women in Sports Day in Pictures

In honor of National Girls and Women in Sports Day, members of the Women Talk Sports network were asked to submit their favorite photos of women in sports from the past year. The result is the slideshow below showing women doing everything from playing basketball to wake boarding. You will notice a few NCAA and WNBA photos from Swish Appeal photographers.
