About this episode:

The NCAA sports machine is built to celebrate the All-American dream. But sometimes, that narrative sidelines the very international athletes who help keep it running. In this episode, Olympian Síofra Cléirigh Büttner shares the quiet determination that carried her from Ireland to the elite ranks of collegiate running at Villanova University.

About Unexpected Curves:

A unique listening experience for the next generation of sports fans to interact with the stories about the people, and the plays that make an industry. In each episode we will get into the culture of women’s sports. Breaking down what’s good, what’s bad and what’s weird. We’ll hear from athletes and experts paving the way for future and sometimes we will go back in time to see how we got here in the first place.

This is the sports show where we give the girls some support.
