Market forces—people would still rather see male athletes in college and professional sports. This is a reality. In the big picture, many fine female athletes are being ignored while many, many marginal male athletes get chance after chance to play college and pro sports.
I'm not complaining, but observing. Having a daughter who is an athlete and a wife who was an elite athlete, it does seem unfair.
Even our girls teams have male coaches more often than not.
